Heard Island

Famous quotes containing the words heard and/or island:

    —I’ve heard of hearts unkind, kind deeds
    With coldness still returning;

    Hath oftener left me mourning.

    The very best place to be in all the world is St. Mary’s parish, Jamaica. And the best spot in St. Mary’s is Port Maria, though all of St. Mary’s is fine. Old Maker put himself to a lot of trouble to make that part of the island of Jamaica, for everything there is perfect.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
