Subterranean Land

Famous quotes containing the words subterranean and/or land:

    So this is the subterranean life.
    If it can’t be conjugated onto us, what good is it?
    What need for purists when the demotic is built to last,
    To outlast us, and no dialect hears us?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    When you have come into the land that the LORD your God is giving you, and have taken possession of it and settled in it, and you say, “I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are around me,” you may indeed set over you a king whom the LORD your God will choose. One of your own community you may set as king over you; you are not permitted to put a foreigner over you, who is not of your own community.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 17:14,15.
