Gardiners Island/history

Famous quotes containing the words island and/or history:

    The island dreams under the dawn
    And great boughs drop tranquillity;
    The peahens dance on a smooth lawn,
    A parrot sways upon a tree,
    Raging at his own image in the enamelled sea.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
