Meadow Grounds

Famous quotes containing the words meadow and/or grounds:

“The poet alone knows astronomy, chemistry, vegetation, and animation, for he does not stop at these facts, but employs them as signs. He knows why the plain, or meadow of space, was strewn with these flowers we call suns, and moons, and stars; why the great deep is adorned with animals, with men, and gods; for, in every word he speaks he rides on them as the horses of thought.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“People are reluctant to cite boredom as grounds for divorce.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
