Famous quotes containing the words english and/or coast:

    “The English were very backward to explore and settle the continent which they had stumbled upon. The French preceded them both in their attempts to colonize the continent of North America ... and in their first permanent settlement ... And the right of possession, naturally enough, was the one which England mainly respected and recognized in the case of Spain, of Portugal, and also of France, from the time of Henry VII.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Beyond this island bound
    By a thin sea of flesh
    And a bone coast ...”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
