Sea Venom Faw

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or venom:

    I have hardly begun to live on Staten Island yet; but, like the man who, when forbidden to tread on English ground, carried Scottish ground in his boots, I carry Concord ground in my boots and in my hat,—and am I not made of Concord dust? I cannot realize that it is the roar of the sea I hear now, and not the wind in Walden woods. I find more of Concord, after all, in the prospect of the sea, beyond Sandy Hook, than in the fields and woods.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The venom clamors of a jealous woman
    Poisons more deadly than a mad dog’s tooth.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
