Famous quotes containing the words difficult and/or dive:

“Go! dive into the Southern Sea, and when
Th’ast found, to trouble the nice sight of men,
A swelling pearl, and such whose single worth
Boasts all the wonders which the seas bring forth,
Give it Endymion’s love, whose ev’ry tear
Would more enrich the skilful jeweller.”
—Sir William Davenant (1606–1668)
