Cherokee Neutral Lands

Famous quotes containing the words cherokee, neutral and/or lands:

    A Cherokee is too smart to put anything in the contribution box of a race that’s robbed him of his birthright.

    I feel the carousel starting slowly
    And going faster and faster: desk, papers, books,
    Photographs of friends, the window and the trees
    Merging in one neutral band that surrounds
    Me on all sides, everywhere I look.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Old men who never cheated, never doubted,
    Communicated monthly, sit and stare
    At the new suburb stretched beyond the run-way
    Where a young man lands hatless from the air.
    Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)
