Famous quotes containing the words pine and/or island:

    “Each dawn is clear
    Cold air bites the throat.
    Thick frost on the pine bough
    Leaps from the tree
    snapped by the diesel”
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    “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)
