Famous quotes containing the words brown and/or county:

    “they are brown and soft,
    And liable to melt as snow.”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    “It would astonish if not amuse, the older citizens of your County who twelve years ago knew me a stranger, friendless, uneducated, penniless boy, working on a flat boat—at ten dollars per month to learn that I have been put down here as the candidate of pride, wealth, and aristocratic family distinction.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
