Coast Guard Air

Famous quotes containing the words coast, guard and/or air:

    “Forced from home, and all its pleasures,
    Afric’s coast I left forlorn;
    To increase a stranger’s treasures,
    O’er the raging billows borne.
    Men from England bought and sold me,
    Paid my price in paltry gold;
    But, though theirs they have enroll’d me,
    Minds are never to be sold.”
    —William Cowper (1731–1800)

    “Those that I fight I do not hate,
    Those that I guard I do not love.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “A slight daily unconscious luxury is hardly ever wanting to the dwellers in civilisation; like the gentle air of a genial climate, it is a perpetual minute enjoyment.”
    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
