Green Areas

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or areas:

    I have seen a green country, useful to the race,
    Knocked silly with guns and mines, its villages vanished,
    Edmund Blunden (1896–1974)

    If a walker is indeed an individualist there is nowhere he can’t go at dawn and not many places he can’t go at noon. But just as it demeans life to live alongside a great river you can no longer swim in or drink from, to be crowded into safer areas and hours takes much of the gloss off walking—one sport you shouldn’t have to reserve a time and a court for.
    Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
