Land Called

Famous quotes containing the words land and/or called:

    O land and soil, red soil and sweet-gum tree,
    So scant of grass, so profligate of pines,
    Jean Toomer (1894–1967)

    He loved strange thought
    And knew that sweet extremity of pride
    That’s called platonic love,
    And that to such a pitch of passion wrought
    Nothing could bring him, when his lady died,
    Anodyne for his love.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
