Famous quotes containing the words eastern shore, eastern and/or shore:
“All the morning we had heard the sea roar on the eastern shore, which was several miles distant....

Instead of having a dog to growl before your door, to have an Atlantic Ocean to growl for a whole Cape!”

Advancing, sowed the earth with orient pearl.”
