Famous quotes containing the words entered, long and/or beach:
“Almost everybody wore a curious limpidity of expression, like newborn babies or souls just after death. Dazed but curiously dignified.... after a crise ... of hysterical revulsion and tiredness, I passed beyond ... and became entered by a rather sublime feeling.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (18991973)
“We die only once, and its for such a long time!”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (16221673)
“Across the lonely beach we flit,
One little sandpiper and I;
And fast I gather, bit by bit,
The scattered driftwood, bleached and dry.
The wild waves reach their hands for it,
The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
As up and down the beach we flit
One little sandpiper and I.”
—Celia Thaxter (Laighton)
