Famous quotes containing the words pearl, harbor and/or memorial:

Of one not easily jealous, but being wrought,
Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose hand,
Like the base Judean threw a pearl away
Richer than all his tribe.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

Our whole body is like a harbor at dawn;
We know that our master has left us for the day.”
