Axis Advance Fleet

Famous quotes containing the words axis, advance and/or fleet:

    He is the essence that inquires.
    He is the axis of the star;
    He is the sparkle of the spar;
    He is the heart of every creature;
    He is the meaning of each feature;
    And his mind is the sky,
    Than all it holds more deep, more high.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Some ne’er advance a judgment of their own,
    But catch the spreading notion of the town;
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    On the middle of that quiet floor
    sits a fleet of small black ships,
    square-rigged, sails furled, motionless,
    their spars like burned matchsticks.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
