Settler Violence

Famous quotes containing the words settler and/or violence:

“Water is a pioneer which the settler follows, taking advantage of its improvements.”

“Violence upon the roads: violence of horses;
Some few have handsome riders, are garlanded
On delicate sensitive ear or tossing mane,
But wearied running round and round in their courses
All break and vanish, and evil gathers head:
Herodias’ daughters have returned again.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
