Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or ports:

    “To me, the sea is like a person—like a child that I’ve known a long time. It sounds crazy, I know, but when I swim in the sea I talk to it. I never feel alone when I’m out there.”
    —Gertrude Ederle (b. 1906)

    “O polished perturbation! golden care!
    That keep’st the ports of slumber open wide
    To many a watchful night.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
