Famous quotes containing the words summer and/or beach:
“The summer hath his joys
And winter his delights;
Though love and all his pleasures are but toys,
They shorten tedious nights.”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
“Across the lonely beach we flit,
One little sandpiper and I;
And fast I gather, bit by bit,
The scattered driftwood, bleached and dry.
The wild waves reach their hands for it,
The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
As up and down the beach we flit—
One little sandpiper and I.”
—Celia Thaxter (”Laighton”)
