Famous quotes containing the words native and/or nations:
“I never see that man without feeling that he is one to become personally attachd to, for his combination of purest, heartiest tenderness, and native western form of manliness.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“Poetry is the most direct and simple means of expressing oneself in words: the most primitive nations have poetry, but only quite well developed civilizations can produce good prose. So dont think of poetry as a perverse and unnatural way of distorting ordinary prose statements: prose is a much less natural way of speaking than poetry is. If you listen to small children, and to the amount of chanting and singsong in their speech, youll see what I mean.”
—Northrop Frye (19121991)
