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

    Pilot to crew. Take a good look at Pearl Harbor. Maybe it’s something you’ll want to remember.
    Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)

    Then must you speak
    Of one that loved not wisely but too well;
    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)

    “When was I ever anything but kind to him?
    But I’ll not have the fellow back,” he said.
    “I told him so last haying, didn’t I?
    ‘If he left then,’ I said, ‘that ended it.’
    What good is he? Who else will harbor him
    At his age for the little he can do?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I hope there will be no effort to put up a shaft or any monument of that sort in memory of me or of the other women who have given themselves to our work. The best kind of a memorial would be a school where girls could be taught everything useful that would help them to earn an honorable livelihood; where they could learn to do anything they were capable of, just as boys can. I would like to have lived to see such a school as that in every great city of the United States.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
