“This land pulses with life. It breathes in me; it breathes around me; it breathes in spite of me. When I walk on this land, I am walking on the heartbeat of the past and the future. And that¡¯s only one of the reasons I am a farmer.”
― Brenda Sutton Rose

“It is more than their land that you take away from the people, whose Native land you take. It is their past as well, their roots and their identity. If you take away the things that they have been used to see, and will be expecting to see, you may, in a way, as well take their eyes. This applies in a higher degree to the primitive people than to the civilized, and animals again will wander back a long way, and go through danger and sufferings, to recover their lost identity, in the surroundings that they know.”
― Isak Dinesen, Out of Africa

“Your realm is an insane place. In Volaria, no-one goes hungry, slaves are no use when they starve. Those freeborn too lazy or lacking in intelligence to turn sufficient profit to feed themselves are made slaves so they can generate wealth for those deserving of freedom, and be fed in return. Here, your people are chained by their freedom, free to starve and beg from the rich. It's disgusting.”
― Anthony Ryan, Tower Lord

“Land forests are the coral reefs of the ocean of air.”
― Steven Magee

“He fell, toppling forward into the sand. He hadn't even fully realised he'd lost his balance until the ground told him. And the ground didn't whisper.”
― Dean F. Wilson, Dustrunner

“Give the man a land, he'll bury himself in it.”
― Ljupka Cvetanova, The New Land

“The USA is a beautiful country...when you take the corrupt corporations and their government minions out of the equation.”
― Steven Magee

“The sea, he thought, had treasured it's memories deeper than the faithless land.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise

“If you are lucky you will have the opportunity in your life to be owned by a good piece of land.”
― Daniel J. Rice

“I still remember the winter sky that evening. Whenever I worked in my sea garden and I saw a sunset like that, I'd think back to Bantham Beach. It was as if the sun had been torn open. Everything was scarlet. The clouds were flames, so wild and vibrant that blue didn't look like a color anymore. The sea and land served as a mirror. The ribbed sand was on fire. So were the stones and maroon rock pools. The pink crests of the waves. The burning hump of Burgh Island.”
― rachel joyce, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy

“How we treat our land, how we build upon it, how we act toward our air and water, in the long run, will tell what kind of people we really are.

-Laurance S. Rockefeller”
― Terry Tempest Williams, The Hour of Land: A Personal Topography of America's National Parks

“The language of a river inscribes
over eyes of moths and flies
the navel of the land is a lake.”
― Sneha Subramanian Kanta, Synecdoche

“We have seen in detail above that the ultimate earnings of factors go to the owners of labor and of ground land and, as interest, to capitalists. If land can be capitalized, does this not mean that land and capital goods are ¡°really the same thing¡± after all? The answer to the latter question is No.25It is still emphatically true that the earnings of basic land factors are ultimate and irreducible, as are labor earnings, while capital goods have to be constantly produced and reproduced, and therefore their earnings are always reducible to the earnings of ground land, labor, and time.”
― Murray N. Rothbard, Man, Economy, and State / Power and Market: Government and Economy

“We sail in leaky bottoms and on great and perilous waters; and to take a cue from the dolorous old naval ballad, we have heard the mer-maidens singing, and know that we shall never see dry land any more. Old and young, we are all on our last cruise. If there is a fill of tobacco among the crew, for God's sake pass it round, and let us have a pipe before we go!”
― Robert Louis Stevenson, Virginibus Puerisque

“Atheism is the philosophical equivalent of a fish denying the existence of land because he lacks the means to experience it.”
― J.Adam Snyder

“What was it like then to witness the transformation wrought by this construction? A geometric idea of precision suddenly imposed on a landscape, lived on and in for centuries. The land itself like a body submitted to military discipline. Or like a mind, tutored along certain acceptable pathways, so that finally all that lies outside certain avenues of thought begins to assume an air of unreality.
The land of course is still there. Only now it has receded into the background. It is what you see in your peripheral vision as you speed down the highway. The complexity of it, the intricate presence of it, has been reduced now to a single word, jungle. If once you breathed its breath or slept surrounded by its dark or wakened with its light, you no longer remember. You tell yourself life has improved. The jungle is in the past. To enter it is to stray from the path, or to be pulled down into some unknown depth. It is an exotic place, intriguing but also unpredictable, uncontrolled, threatening the well-paved order of existence.”
― Susan Griffin, A Chorus of Stones: The Private Life of War

“The leaders have the responsibility to protect and hold in high esteem the law and virtues of the land.”
― Sunday Adelaja, The Mountain of Ignorance

“it was too loud for hope
it was too silent for victory.”
― Sneha Subramanian Kanta, Synecdoche

“Why do we romanticize the virgin spaces? Land where no one¡¯s walked or built or puked or fought over its uses? Land never once in its existence beholden to anyone or anything, forming timelessly, inured of us. We want it to seduce the cluttered world of today out from under us.”
― Laurie Perez, The Power of Amie Martine

“Do not say the land ahead does not exist, simply because you cannot see it.”
― Robert H. Barlow

“The time of man is coming, and of this I am certain: neither death, nor life, nor the spirits, nor the present, nor the future, nor the stars, nor the abyss, nor any creature: nothing will keep from love those who live in our land, and by our land. The time of man is coming©¤men who will know the nobility of forests and the grace of trees, men who will know how to contemplate and heal and, lastly, how to love.”
― Muriel Barbery, The Life of Elves

“Your insult by the ungodliness and injustice in the land is a force.”
― Sunday Adelaja, The Mountain of Ignorance

“You must build and develop a greater force on the inside of you, in this way, you will be able to speak and stand against ungodliness and injustice in the land.”
― Sunday Adelaja, The Mountain of Ignorance

“Actually, everyone, in one way or the other is being insulted by ungodliness and injustice, be it racial injustice, inequality, economic injustice, and the spread and campaign of ungodliness sweeping the land.”
― Sunday Adelaja, The Mountain of Ignorance

“We all know who you are, Mr. Coughlin. Famous Yankee gangster. Friend of the colonel. It would be safer for a man to swim into the middle of the ocean and cut his own throat than to threaten you.' He solemnly made the sign of the cross. 'But when people starve and have nowhere to go, where would you have them end up?'
'Not on my land,' Joe said.
'But it is not your land. It's God's. You are renting it. This rum? This life?' He patted his chest. 'We are all just renting from God.”
― Dennis Lehane, Live by Night

“He said he owned the land,
He said he owned the sea,
Through his sweet lies and manipulation,
He was trying to own me”
― Charmaine J Forde

“An unhappy land, then, is one whose citizens no longer know where duty lies, and seek a charismatic leader who tells them what to do. Which, if I remember correctly, is what Hitler promulgated in Mein Kampf.”
― Umberto Eco, Chronicles of a Liquid Society

“Katika karne iliyopita, wanaakiolojia waligundua mbegu za pamba na ngano katika baadhi ya makaburi waliyokuwa wakiyafukua kwa ajili ya utafiti wao wa kisayansi. Mbegu hizo, zilizokadiriwa kuwa na umri wa kuanzia miaka 2000 hadi 4000, zilimea na kukua zilipopandwa katika udongo sahihi wenye rutuba. Roho ya maisha ilikuwa bado imo ndani ya mbegu hizo, pamoja na kwamba zilikosa mvua na jua kwa zaidi ya miaka 2000.

Huu ni uthibitisho kwamba kama mbegu itapandwa, itamea na kukua kama itapandwa katika udongo sahihi wenye rutuba. Matumizi sahihi, watu ni ardhi na mazingira yetu na kile tunachokifanya baada ya kupanda mbegu ni neno la ukweli ambalo ndani yake kuna kanuni na mafundisho ya Mungu, ndicho kinachoathiri matumizi ya mbegu.”
― Enock Maregesi

“The map is not the land.”
― George R.R. Martin, ÁÐÍõµÄ¾ÀÕù

“Land meant something different in Hawai'i then it did in California. People here said the word with a kind of worship in their voices.”
