Famous quotes containing the words south and/or georgia:

    “A friend and I flew south with our children. During the week we spent together I took off my shoes, let down my hair, took apart my psyche, cleaned the pieces, and put them together again in much improved condition. I feel like a car that’s just had a tune-up. Only another woman could have acted as the mechanic.”
    —Anna Quindlen (20th century)

    “Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find, just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.”
    —Stuart Gorrell (d. 1963)
