Famous quotes containing the words english and/or ships:

    Summer afternoon—summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.

    Your mind and you are our Sargasso Sea,

    And bright ships left you this or that in fee:

    Strange spars of knowledge and dimmed wares of price.
