Green Belts

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or belts:

    The gentle serpent, green in the mulberry bush,
    Riots with his tongue through the hush—
    Sentinel of the grave who counts us all!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Such a style,—so diversified and variegated! It is like the face of a country; it is like a New England landscape, with farmhouses and villages, and cultivated spots, and belts of forests and blueberry swamps round about, with the fragrance of shad-blossoms and violets on certain winds.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
