Famous quotes containing the words people, buried and/or royal:

    What would it mean to live
    in a city whose people were changing
    each other’s despair into hope?—
    You yourself must change it.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Come with rain, O loud Southwester!
    Bring the singer, bring the nester;
    Give the buried flower a dream;
    Make the settled snowbank steam....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The Royal Navy of England hath ever been its greatest defence and ornament; it is its ancient and natural strength; the floating bulwark of the island.
    William Blackstone (1723–1780)
