Famous quotes containing the words notable, ships and/or built:

    “Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “I saw three ships go sailing by,
    Over the sea, the lifting sea....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Safe upon the solid rock the ugly houses stand:
    Come and see my shining palaces built upon the sand.”
    —Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
