Living Land Plants

Famous quotes containing the words living, land and/or plants:

    I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is a physical difference between the two, which, in my judgement, will probably for ever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality; and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I ... am in favour of the race to which I belong having the superior position.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    ... were all America like this fair city, and all, no, only a small proportion of its population like the friends we left there, I should say, that the land was the fairest in the world.
    Frances Trollope (1780–1863)

    He who plants a tree
    Plants a hope.
    Lucy Larcom (1826–1893)
