Baron Robertson of Port Ellen

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or port:

    Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern but impossible to enslave.
    Henry Peter, 1st Baron Brougham And Vaux Brougham (1778–1868)

    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)
