Wan Island Resort

Famous quotes containing the words wan, island and/or resort:

    bacterial creepers
    Wriggling through wounds
    Like elvers in ponds,
    Their wan mouths kissing the warm sutures,
    Cleaning and caressing,
    Creeping and healing.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    They all came, some wore sentiments
    Emblazoned on T-shirts, proclaiming the lateness
    Of the hour, and indeed the sun slanted its rays
    Through branches of Norfolk Island pine as though
    Politely clearing its throat....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The truth is that every intelligent man, as you well know, dreams of being a gangster and ruling over society through violence alone. Since this is not as easy as the novels would have us believe, people generally resort to politics and join the cruelest party.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
