Long Island Macarthur

Famous quotes containing the words long, island and/or macarthur:

    My life has crept so long on a broken wing
    Through cells of madness, haunts of horror and fear,
    That I come to be grateful at last for a little thing.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    The island dreams under the dawn
    And great boughs drop tranquillity;
    The peahens dance on a smooth lawn,
    A parrot sways upon a tree,
    Raging at his own image in the enamelled sea.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    We have had our last chance. If we do not devise some greater and more equitable system, Armageddon will be at our door.
    —Douglas MacArthur (1880–1964)
