Chester Village Green

Famous quotes containing the words village and/or green:

    When a village ceases to be a community, it becomes oppressive in its narrow conformity. So one becomes an individual and migrates to the city. There, finding others likeminded, one re- establishes a village community. Nowadays only New Yorkers are yokels.
    Paul Goodman (1911–1972)

    If you meet a cross-eyed person
    you must plunge into the grass,
    alongside the chilly ants,
    fish through the green fingernails
    and come up with the four-leaf clover....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
