Shoal Light

Famous quotes containing the words shoal and/or light:

    “If it were done when ‘tis done, then ‘twere well
    It were done quickly. If th’ assassination
    Could trammel up the consequence, and catch
    With his surcease success—that but this blow
    Might be the be-all and the end-all!—here,
    But here, upon this bank and shoal of time,
    We’d jump the life to come.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “But thou beneath the sad and heavy line
    Of death, doth waste all senseless, cold, and dark;
    Where not so much as dreams of light may shine,
    Nor any thought of greenness, leaf, or bark.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
