Ocean Bluff

Famous quotes containing the words ocean and/or bluff:

“Our fathers water’d with their tears
This sea of time whereon we sail,
Their voices were in all men’s ears
Who pass’d within their puissant hail.
Still the same ocean round us raves,
But we stand mute, and watch the waves.”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

“When people are taken out of their depths they lose their heads, no matter how charming a bluff they may put up.”
