Ocean Bluff

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or bluff:

    “And such the trust that still were mine,
    Though stormy winds swept o’er the brine,
    Or though the tempest’s fiery breath
    Roused me from sleep to wreck and death.
    In ocean cave, still safe with Thee
    The germ of immortality!
    And calm and peaceful shall I sleep,
    Rocked in the cradle of the deep.”
    —Emma Hart Willard (1787–1870)

    “When people are taken out of their depths they lose their heads, no matter how charming a bluff they may put up.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
