Famous quotes containing the words ferry and/or crossing:
“And my eyes are blue;
So ferry me across the water,
Do, boatman, do!
Step into my ferry-boat,
Be they black or blue,”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (18301894)
“Nature is a setting that fits equally well a comic or a mourning piece. In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
