Famous quotes containing the words pearl and/or white:

    Pilot to crew. Take a good look at Pearl Harbor. Maybe it’s something you’ll want to remember.
    Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)

    Your wits can’t thicken in that soft moist air, on those white springy roads, in those misty rushes and brown bogs, on those hillsides of granite rocks and magenta heather. You’ve no such colours in the sky, no such lure in the distances, no such sadness in the evenings. Oh the dreaming! the dreaming! the torturing, heart-scalding, never satisfying dreaming, dreaming, dreaming, dreaming!
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
