Famous quotes containing the words edwards and/or islet:

“Compared to Clouseau, Attila the Hun was a Red Cross volunteer.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

“Again we mistook a little rocky islet seen through the “drisk,” with some taller bare trunks or stumps on it, for the steamer with its smoke-pipes, but as it had not changed its position after half an hour, we were undeceived. So much do the works of man resemble the works of nature. A moose might mistake a steamer for a floating isle, and not be scared till he heard its puffing or its whistle.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
