Pemba Island Day

Famous quotes containing the words island and/or day:

“We approached the Indian Island through the narrow strait called “Cook.” He said, “I ‘xpect we take in some water there, river so high,—never see it so high at this season. Very rough water there, but short; swamp steamboat once. Don’t paddle till I tell you, then you paddle right along.” It was a very short rapid. When we were in the midst of it he shouted “paddle,” and we shot through without taking in a drop.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The end crowns all;
And that old common arbitrator, Time,
Will one day end it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
