Popular quotes about Beach! Wisdom and inspiration are here! | page 65
There are more stars known to exist right now than the total number of all the grains of sand on every beach in the entire world.

The music transported him somehow and made his world less gray.

Like I was going to get fired, I was so bad.

In this big country, I can be as brash as New York, as hedonistic as Los Angeles, as sensuous as San Francisco, as brainy as Boston, as proper as Philadelphia, as brawny as Chicago, as warm as Palm Springs, as friendly as my adopted home town of Dallas, Fort Worth, and as peaceful as the inland waterway that rubs up against my former home in Virginia Beach.

Donald TrumpSeems there's a big debate going on about whether a new TV commercial for Minute Maid orange juice portrays Popeye and Bluto as gay lovers or just good friends.
