Dear Land

Famous quotes containing the words dear and/or land:

    Ask me no more: thy fate and mine are sealed;
    I strove against the stream and all in vain;
    Let the great river take me to the main.
    No more, dear love, for at a touch I yield;
    Ask me no more.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    That is the land of lost content,
    I see it shining plain,
    The happy highways where I went
    And cannot come again.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
