Famous quotes containing the words southern and/or highlands:

    “I prefer to make no new declarations [on southern policy beyond what was in the Letter of Acceptance]. But you may say, if you deem it advisable, that you know that I will stand by the friendly and encouraging words of that Letter, and by all that they imply. You cannot express that too strongly.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Oh! where hae ye been?
    They hae slain the Earl of Murray,
    And hae laid him on the green.”
