Famous quotes containing the words island, national and/or park:

    “The island dreams under the dawn
    And great boughs drop tranquillity;
    The peahens dance on a smooth lawn,
    A parrot sways upon a tree,
    Raging at his own image in the enamelled sea.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The national anthem belongs to the eighteenth century. In it you find us ordering God about to do our political dirty work.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “The park is filled with night and fog,
    The veils are drawn about the world,”
    —Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)
