Van Nest Park

Famous quotes containing the words van, nest and/or park:

    If ... boyhood and youth are but vanity, must it not be our ambition to become men?
    —Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)

    Now’s the time for mirth and play,
    Saturday’s an holiday;
    Praise to heaven unceasing yield,
    I’ve found a lark’s nest in the field.
    Christopher Smart (1722–1771)

    Is a park any better than a coal mine? What’s a mountain got that a slag pile hasn’t? What would you rather have in your garden—an almond tree or an oil well?
    Jean Giraudoux (1882–1944)
