Famous quotes containing the word ships:
“Your mind and you are our Sargasso Sea,
London has swept about you this score years
And bright ships left you this or that in fee:
Ideas, old gossip, oddments of all things,
Strange spars of knowledge and dimmed wares of price.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“Two lives that once part are as ships that divide.”
—Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1803–1873)
“I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep”
—James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)
