Famous quotes containing the words town, country, planning and/or regulations:

    “If I am to be a thoroughfare, I prefer that it be of the mountain brooks, the Parnassian streams, and not the town sewers. There is inspiration, that gossip which comes to the ear of the attentive mind from the courts of heaven. There is the profane and stale revelation of the barroom and the police court. The same ear is fitted to receive both communications. Only the character of the hearer determines to which it shall be open, and to which closed.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “But country folks who live beneath
    The shadow and the steeple;
    The parson and the parson’s wife,
    And mostly married people;”
    —Arthur Hugh Clough (1819–1861)

    “In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensable.”
    —Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)

    “The admission of Oriental immigrants who cannot be amalgamated with our people has been made the subject either of prohibitory clauses in our treaties and statutes or of strict administrative regulations secured by diplomatic negotiations. I sincerely hope that we may continue to minimize the evils likely to arise from such immigration without unnecessary friction and by mutual concessions between self-respecting governments.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
