Famous quotes containing the words floating and/or man:
“I myself have seen the floating ships
And nothing will ever be the same
The shouts,
The harrowing voices within the house.
I stand apart with an army:
My mind is graven with ships.”
—Hilda Doolittle (18861961)
“Indolence is heavens ally here,
And energy the child of hell:
The Good Man pouring from his pitcher clear
But brims the poisoned well.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
