Waste Land

Famous quotes containing the words waste and/or land:

    But waste was of the essence of the scheme.
    And all the good they did for man or god
    To all those flowers they passionately trod
    Was leave as their posterity one pod
    With an inheritance of restless dream.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Most blest believer he!
    Who in that land of darkness and blind eyes
    Thy long-expected healing wings could see,
    When thou didst rise,
    And what can never more be done
    Did at midnight speak with the Sun!
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
