Coast Oil

Famous quotes containing the words coast and/or oil:

    Have we even so much as discovered and settled the shores? Let a man travel on foot along the coast ... and tell me if it looks like a discovered and settled country, and not rather, for the most part, like a desolate island, and No-Man’s Land.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is wise to apply the oil of refined politeness to the mechanism of friendship.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
