W B Yeats

Wherever men have tried to imagine a perfect life, they have imagined a place where men plough and sow and reap not a place where there are great wheels turning and great chimneys vomiting smoke.

Today’s Green Thought comes from a W B Yeats lecture in 1911 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W_B_Yeats
