Island Sound

Famous quotes containing the words island and/or sound:

    That island of England breeds very valiant creatures; their
    mastiffs are of unmatchable courage.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Philosophy ... does not talk, but write, or, when it comes personally before an audience, lecture or read; and therefore it must be read to-morrow, or a thousand years hence. But the talker must naturally be attended to at once; he does not talk on without an audience; the winds do not long bear the sound of his voice.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
