Famous quotes containing the words tidal and/or straits:

    “And now it is once more the tidal wave
    That when it was swept by, leaves summits stained.
    Oh, blood will out. It cannot be contained.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Yes! in sea of life enisled,
    With echoing straits between us thrown,
    Dotting the shoreless watery wild,
    We mortal millions live alone.”
    —Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
