South Sands

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or sands:

    “There were metal detectors on the staff-room doors and Hernandez usually had a drawer full of push-daggers, nunchuks, stun-guns, knucks, boot-knives, and whatever else the detectors had picked up. Like Friday morning at a South Miami high school.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “I heard the hissing rustle of the liquid and sands as directed to
    me whispering to congratulate me,
    For the one I love most lay sleeping by me under the same cover in the cool night,
    In the stillness in the autumn moonbeams his face was inclined
    toward me,
    And his arm lay lightly around my breast—and that night I
    was happy.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
