Ocean Park Pier

Famous quotes containing the words ocean, park and/or pier:

    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)

    Borrow a child and get on welfare.
    Borrow a child and stay in the house all day with the child,
    or go to the public park with the child, and take the child
    to the welfare office and cry and say your man left you and
    be humble and wear your dress and your smile, and don’t talk
    back ...
    Susan Griffin (b. 1943)

    Duccio came not by usura
    nor Pier della Francesca; Zuan Bellin’ not by usura
    nor was ‘La Calunnia’ painted.
    Came not by usura Angelico; came not Ambrogio Praedis,
    Came no church of cut stone signed: Adamo me fecit.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
