Famous quotes containing the words county and/or park:

    “In the county there are thirty-seven churches
    and no butcher shop. This could be taken
    as a matter of all form and no content.”
    —Maxine Kumin (b. 1925)

    “Is a park any better than a coal mine? What’s a mountain got that a slag pile hasn’t? What would you rather have in your garden—an almond tree or an oil well?”
    —Jean Giraudoux (1882–1944)
