Guardian Sailor Moon

Famous quotes containing the words guardian, sailor and/or moon:

    It’s not the bullet with my name on it that worries me. It’s the one that says “To whom it may concern.”
    —Anonymous Belfast Resident. quoted in Guardian (London, Oct. 16, 1991)

    The sailor is frankness, the landsman is finesse. Life is not a game with the sailor, demanding the long head—no intricate game of chess where few moves are made in straight-forwardness and ends are attained by indirection, an oblique, tedious, barren game hardly worth that poor candle burnt out in playing it.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    In his time, this one had little to speak of,
    The softest word went gurrituck in his skull.
    For him the moon was always in Scandinavia
    And his daughter was a foreign thing.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
