Famous quotes containing the words watson and/or island:
“And must I wholly banish hence
These red and golden juices,
And pay my vows to Abstinence,
That pallidest of Muses?”
—Sir William Watson (1858–1935)
“I candidly confess that I have ever looked on Cuba as the most interesting addition which could ever be made to our system of States. The control which, with Florida, this island would give us over the Gulf of Mexico, and the countries and isthmus bordering on it, as well as all those whose waters flow into it, would fill up the measure of our political well-being.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
