Scarborough North Bay

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or bay:

“Refinement’s origin:
the remote north country’s
rice-planting song.”
—Matsuo Basho (1644–1694)

“Three miles long and two streets wide, the town curls around the bay ... a gaudy run with Mediterranean splashes of color, crowded steep-pitched roofs, fishing piers and fishing boats whose stench of mackerel and gasoline is as aphrodisiac to the sensuous nose as the clean bar-whisky smell of a nightclub where call girls congregate.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
