For Catholics before Vatican II, the land of the free was pre-eminently the land of Sister Says-except, of course, for Sister, for whom it was the land of Father Says.

The most common trait of all primitive peoples is a reverence for the life-giving earth, and the Native American shared this elemental ethic: The land was alive to his loving touch, and he, its son, was brother to all creatures.

Not to wax nostalgic about the 1970’s, but back then people got upset when they saw injustice. They got tired of seeing our air, land and water polluted. They were shocked when the Cuyahoga River in Ohio was polluted so badly it caught fire. And on one ...

God of our fathers, who by land and sea have ever lead us to victory, please continue your inspiring guidance in this the greatest of all conflicts. Strengthen my soul so that the weakening instinct of self-preservation, which besets all of us in battle, ...

Gardens, scholars say, are the first sign of commitment to a community. When people plant corn they are saying, let`s stay here. And by their connection to the land, they are connected to one another.

You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this.

With various people complaining about "price gouging”... economist Walter Williams has coined a new term: "Tax gouging." But government is never accused of either "greed" or "gouging" — not even when they bulldoze people`s homes in order to turn the l...
Thomas Sowell
The land of fairy, where nobody gets old and godly and grave, where nobody gets old and crafty and wise, where nobody gets old and bitter of tongue.
William Butler Yeats
Each blade of grass has its spot on earth whence it draws its life, its strength; and so is man rooted to the land from which he draws his faith together with his life.
Joseph Conrad
Poetry is the journal of the sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air. Poetry is a search for syllables to shoot at the barriers of the unknown and the unknowable. Poetry is a phantom script telling how rainbows are made and why they go away.

[On his fourth installment of the "Living Dead" series, Land of the Dead (2005)]: The idea of living with terrorism - I`ve tried to make it more applicable to the concerns Americans are going through now.

(On his childhood and his live on the land with his family): "I remember us being poor, but I never felt embarrassed, or like I was missing anything. I don`t remember the hardship of trying to make it, just how my parents always managed to get through."

[asked whether the Native American Indians should be allowed to camp on their land at Alcatraz] Well, I don`t know of anybody else who wants it. The fellas who were taken off it sure don`t want to go back there, including the guards. So as far as I am con...

I think spiritual perception comes from natural and healthy relationship to the land and I`ve had that. I get an easy, automatic sense of myself in nature, a wholeness and I feel nowhere else. I think people should live where praying is most immediate. Th...

I would get into fights with other bouncers when a guy was already on the floor and the other guys thought it was alright to jump up in the air and land on the guy`s head.

Great storytellers in the past would go to an unknown land and return to tell the stories they`ve found. Those were also journeys into their inner psyches and that`s still true today. An actor, a writer, does that as if saying, "Here`s what I`ve discovere...
