Lands

Famous quotes containing the word lands:

    I sat upon the shore
    Fishing, with the arid plain behind me
    Shall I at least set my lands in order?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Joseph, when I had jewels and lands and palaces, I was often weary and discontent. When everything was taken away, except my life, I learned that the way to be really happy is to serve others, to be needed.
    —Adele Comandini. Edward Sutherland. Madam Tanya (Maria Ouspenskaya)

    When I think of our lands I think of the house
    And the table that holds a platter of pears,
    Vermilion smeared over green, arranged for show.
