Famous quotes containing the words north, coast and/or humboldt:
“I’m trusting in the Lord and a good lawyer.”
—Oliver North (b. 1943)
“Too many Broadway actors in motion pictures lost their grip on success—had a feeling that none of it had ever happened on that sun-drenched coast, that the coast itself did not exist, there was no California. It had dropped away like a hasty dream and nothing could ever have been like the things they thought they remembered.”
—Mae West (1892–1980)
“Possession, it is true, crowns exertion with rest; but it is only in the illusions of fancy that it has power to charm us.”
—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
