Famous quotes containing the words air and/or ship:
“Nature is a setting that fits equally well a comic or a mourning piece. In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The ship goes on
as though nothing else were happening.
Generation after generation,
I go her way.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
