Famous quotes containing the words green and/or islands:

    Among the Indians he had fought;
    And with him many tales he brought
    Of pleasure and of fear;
    Such tales as told to any Maid
    By such a Youth, in the green shade,
    Were perilous to hear.

    we are so many
    and many within themselves
    travel to far islands but no one
    asks for their story....
