State Rest Day

Famous quotes containing the words state, rest and/or day:

    I met a traveler from Arkansas
    Who boasted of his state as beautiful
    For diamonds and apples.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Now rest in peace, our patriot band;
    Though far from nature’s limits thrown,
    We trust they find a happier land,
    A brighter sunshine of their own.
    Philip Freneau (1752–1832)

    A solitary traveller can sleep from state to state, from day to night, from day to day, in the long womb of its controlled interior. It is the cradle that never stops rocking after the lullaby is over. It is the biggest sleeping tablet in the world, and no one need ever swallow the pill, for it swallows them.
    —Lisa St. Aubin de TerĂ¡n (b. 1953)
