Famous quotes containing the words florida, state and/or road:

    In Florida consider the flamingo,
    Its color passion but its neck a question.
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)

    The human race is yet in its infancy—no, not infancy; infancy is innocent and sweet—it is in its ugly boyhood, half way between the child and the man—in a state of semi-barbarism.
    Anonymous, U.S. magazine contributor. Herald of Progress (no dates available)

    The road became a channel running flocks
    Of glossy birds like ripples over rocks.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
