Heard Island

Famous quotes containing the words heard and/or island:

“I grow old . . . I grow old . . .
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.

Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

I do not think that they will sing to me.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

““Our island home
Is far beyond the wave;we will no longer roam.””
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
