Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or island:
“Dead battles, like dead generals, hold the military mind in their dead grip.”
—Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
“I should like to have seen a gallery of coronation beauties, at Westminster Abbey, confronted for a moment by this band of Island girls; their stiffness, formality, and affectation contrasted with the artless vivacity and unconcealed natural graces of these savage maidens. It would be the Venus de’ Medici placed beside a milliner’s doll.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
