Foynes Flying Boat

Famous quotes containing the words flying and/or boat:

    Bonnie Lee: Oh, it’s the most wonderful thing I’ve ever seen.
    Geoff Carter [sarcastically]: Yes, it reminded you of a great big, beautiful bird, didn’t it?
    Bonnie: No, it didn’t at all. That’s why it’s so wonderful. It’s really a flying human being.
    Geoff: Well, you’re right about one thing. A bird’d have too much sense to fly in that kind of muck.
    Jules Furthman (1888–1960)

    The almost unexplored Everglades lay close by and with a half- hour’s start a man who knew the country was safe from pursuit. As one man cheerfully confided ..., ‘A boat don’t leave no trail, stranger.’
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
