Famous quotes containing the words state and/or parks:

    “The best way of learning to be an independent sovereign state is to be an independent sovereign state.”
    —Kwame Nkrumah (1900–1972)

    “Towns are full of people, houses full of tenants, hotels full of guests, trains full of travelers, cafés full of customers, parks full of promenaders, consulting-rooms of famous doctors full of patients, theatres full of spectators, and beaches full of bathers. What previously was, in general, no problem, now begins to be an everyday one, namely, to find room.”
    —José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
