Famous quotes containing the words lesser and/or islands:

    “So hills and valleys into singing break;
    And though poor stones have neither speech nor tongue,
    While active winds and streams both run and speak,
    Yet stones are deep in admiration.
    Thus praise and prayer here beneath the Sun
    Make lesser mornings when the great are done.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “What are the islands to me
    if you are lost
    what is Naxos, Tinos, Andros,
    and Delos, the clasp
    of the white necklace?”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
