Famous quotes containing the words country and/or park:

    To think to know the country and not know
    The hillside on the day the sun lets go
    Ten million silver lizards out of snow!
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Is a park any better than a coal mine? What’s a mountain got that a slag pile hasn’t? What would you rather have in your garden—an almond tree or an oil well?
    Jean Giraudoux (1882–1944)
