Coast Swing

Famous quotes containing the words coast and/or swing:

“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)

“Slave of the wheel of labor, what to him
Are Plato and the swing of Pleiades?”
—Edwin Markham (1852–1940)
