Famous quotes containing the words pacific, coast and/or highway:

    “The doctor of Geneva stamped the sand
    That lay impounding the Pacific swell,
    Patted his stove-pipe hat and tugged his shawl.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “How happy is the sailor’s life,
    From coast to coast to roam;
    In every port he finds a wife,
    In every land a home.”
    —Isaac Bickerstaffe (c. 1735–1812)

    “The improved American highway system ... isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway ... he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson’s nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
