The views from the top of the downs (near Ventnor) are only equalled by shores found in the Mediterranean. - Charles Dickens
She thinks of nothing but the Isle of Wight and she calls it 'The Island' as if there were no other island in the world. - Jane Austen Mansfield Park
The Undercliff bids fair to exceed all other winter residences in this country, and the island will have added to its title ‘The Garden of England’, that of The British Madeira. - Dr. Clarke, 19th century
I had a very happy childhood on the Isle of Wight, sailing dinghies and riding horses. - Jeremy Irons
