Famous quotes containing the words long and/or beach:

    “Long shall we seek his likeness, long in vain,
    And turn to all of him which may remain,
    Sighing that Nature formed but one such man,
    And broke the die—in moulding Sheridan!”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “If Los Angeles has been called “the capital of crackpots” and “the metropolis of isms,” the native Angeleno can not fairly attribute all of the city’s idiosyncrasies to the newcomer—at least not so long as he consults the crystal ball for guidance in his business dealings and his wife goes shopping downtown in beach pajamas.”
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
