Famous quotes containing the words beach and/or week:
“We often love to think now of the life of men on beaches,at least in midsummer, when the weather is serene; their sunny lives on the sand, amid the beach-grass and bayberries, their companion a cow, their wealth a jag of driftwood or a few beach plums, and their music the surf and the peep of the beech-bird.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I prefer surveying for a week to spending a week in fashionable society even of the best class.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (18421911)
