Baron Robertson of Port Ellen

Famous quotes containing the words baron, port and/or ellen:

    My hand and pen are not in plight,
    As they have been of yore.
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)

    O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
    The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
    The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
    While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
    But O heart! heart! heart!
    O the bleeding drops of red,
    Where on the deck my Captain lies,
    Fallen cold and dead.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Party action should follow, not precede the creation of a dominant popular sentiment.
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)
