Beach National Pro

Famous quotes containing the words beach, national and/or pro:

    “Across the lonely beach we flit,
    One little sandpiper and I;
    And fast I gather, bit by bit,
    The scattered driftwood, bleached and dry.
    The wild waves reach their hands for it,
    The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
    As up and down the beach we flit—
    One little sandpiper and I.”
    —Celia Thaxter (”Laighton”)

    “There is no calamity which a great nation can invite which equals that which follows a supine submission to wrong and injustice and the consequent loss of national self-respect and honor, beneath which are shielded and defended a people’s safety and greatness.”
    —Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)

    “It is sweet and honourable to die for one’s country.
    [Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori.]”
    —Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
