Reaches Moderate Tropical

Famous quotes containing the words reaches, moderate and/or tropical:

    Topographically the country is magnificent—and terrifying. Why terrifying? Because nowhere else in the world is the divorce between man and nature so complete. Nowhere have I encountered such a dull, monotonous fabric of life as here in America. Here boredom reaches its peak.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    One will seldom go wrong in attributing extreme actions to vanity, moderate ones to habit, and petty ones to fear.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Oh, you’ll love the sea. There’s something about it. The hot red dawn, the towering sails, the wake on a tropical night. Oh, you’ll love it all. It’s a glorious kind of world. I couldn’t live without it.
    —Charles Larkworthy. Denison Clift. Capt. Benjamin Briggs (Arthur Margetson)
