Famous quotes containing the words shore and/or duty:
“... living out of sight of any shore does rich and powerfully strange things to humans.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
“They do not sweat and whine about their condition,
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins,
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God,
Not one is dissatisfied—not one is demented with the mania of owning things,
Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of
years ago,
Not one is respectable or industrious over the whole earth.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
