Famous quotes containing the words sylvan and/or beach:
“In miracles of pomp, we must be proud,
As if associates of the sylvan gods.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A young person is a person with nothing to learn
One who already knows that ice does not chill and fire does not burn . . .
It knows it can spend six hours in the sun on its first
day at the beach without ending up a skinless beet,
And it knows it can walk barefoot through the barn
without running a nail in its feet. . . .
Meanwhile psychologists grow rich
Writing that the young are ones’ should not
undermine the self-confidence of which.”
—Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
