Captain Arthur Phillip

Famous quotes containing the words captain and/or arthur:

    Now that I had heard a part of his history, he appeared singularly destitute,—a captain without any vessel, only a greatcoat! and that perhaps a borrowed one! Not even a dog followed him; only his title stuck to him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I consider that a man’s brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose.
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
