European Green Parties

Famous quotes containing the words european, green and/or parties:

    Long accustomed to the use of European manufactures, [the Cherokee Indians] are as incapable of returning to their habits of skins and furs as we are, and find their wants the less tolerable as they are occasioned by a war [the American Revolution] the event of which is scarcely interesting to them.

    Be the green grass above me,
    With showers and dewdrops wet;
    And if thou wilt, remember,
    And if thou wilt, forget.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    Friendship takes place between those who have an affinity for one another, and is a perfectly natural and inevitable result. No professions nor advances will avail.... It is a drama in which the parties have no part to act.
