Famous quotes containing the words beach and/or world:

    “From the beach the child holding the hand of her father,
    Those burial clouds that lower victorious soon to devour all,
    Watching, silently weeps.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “The world ‘s a bubble, and the life of man
    Less then a span:
    In his conception wretched, from the womb
    So to the tomb;
    Curst from his cradle, and brought up to years
    With cares and fears.”
    —Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
