Full Rigged Ship

Famous quotes containing the words full, rigged and/or ship:

    Every man who possibly can should force himself to a holiday of a full month in a year, whether he feels like taking it or not.
    William James (1842–1910)

    Museums, museums, museums, object-lessons rigged out to illustrate the unsound theories of archaeologists, crazy attempts to co-ordinate and get into a fixed order that which has no fixed order and will not be co-ordinated! It is sickening! Why must all experience be systematized?... A museum is not a first-hand contact: it is an illustrated lecture. And what one wants is the actual vital touch.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Every ship is a romantic object, except that we sail in. Embark, and the romance quits our vessel, and hangs on every other sail in the horizon.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
