Blue Jay Creek

Famous quotes containing the words blue, jay and/or creek:

    Roll on, thou deep and dark blue Ocean,—roll!
    Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain;
    Man marks the earth with ruin,—his control
    Stops with the shore;
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Make a plan and you will find she has something else in mind;
    —Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)

    It might be seen by what tenure men held the earth. The smallest stream is mediterranean sea, a smaller ocean creek within the land, where men may steer by their farm bounds and cottage lights. For my own part, but for the geographers, I should hardly have known how large a portion of our globe is water, my life has chiefly passed within so deep a cove. Yet I have sometimes ventured as far as to the mouth of my Snug Harbor.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
