Pebble Beach

Famous quotes containing the words pebble and/or beach:

“The murmuring surge,
That on th’ unnumbered idle pebble chafes,
Cannot be heard so high.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“They will tell you tough stories of sharks all over the Cape, which I do not presume to doubt utterly,—how they will sometimes upset a boat, or tear it in pieces, to get at the man in it. I can easily believe in the undertow, but I have no doubt that one shark in a dozen years is enough to keep up the reputation of a beach a hundred miles long.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
