Beautiful Sea

Famous quotes containing the words beautiful and/or sea:

    I heard the old, old men say,
    “All that’s beautiful drifts away
    Like the waters.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    When the fierce north-western blast
    Cools sea and land so far and fast,
    Thou already slumberest deep;
    Woe and want thou canst outsleep;
    Want and woe, which torture us,
    Thy sleep makes ridiculous.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
