Burns Beach

Famous quotes containing the words burns and/or beach:

    So cold, so icy that one burns one’s fingers on him! Every hand that touches him pulls away in fright!—And for that very reason, some take him to be glowing hot.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    They will tell you tough stories of sharks all over the Cape, which I do not presume to doubt utterly,—how they will sometimes upset a boat, or tear it in pieces, to get at the man in it. I can easily believe in the undertow, but I have no doubt that one shark in a dozen years is enough to keep up the reputation of a beach a hundred miles long.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
