Coast Guard Auxiliary

Famous quotes containing the words coast and/or guard:

    It cannot but affect our philosophy favorably to be reminded of these shoals of migratory fishes, of salmon, shad, alewives, marsh-bankers, and others, which penetrate up the innumerable rivers of our coast in the spring, even to the interior lakes, their scales gleaming in the sun; and again, of the fry which in still greater numbers wend their way downward to the sea.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Harsh necessity, and the newness of my kingdom, force me to do such things and to guard my frontiers everywhere.
    Virgil [Publius Vergilius Maro] (70–19 B.C.)
