Famous quotes containing the word earth:
“Till the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle-flags were
furled
In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.
There the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in awe,
And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapped in universal law.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
