Famous quotes containing the words muir and/or island:

    Long time he lay upon the sunny hill,
    To his father’s house below securely bound.
    —Edwin Muir (1887–1959)

    I suggested to them also the great desirability of a general knowledge on the Island of the English language. They are under an English speaking government and are a part of the territory of an English speaking nation.... While I appreciated the desirability of maintaining their grasp on the Spanish language, the beauty of that language and the richness of its literature, that as a practical matter for them it was quite necessary to have a good comprehension of English.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
