Havilland Sea Vixen

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or vixen:

    “SWEENEY:
    Nothing to eat but the fruit as it grows.
    Nothing to see but the palmtrees one way
    And the sea the other way,
    Nothing to hear but the sound of the surf.
    Nothing at all but three things
    DORIS: What things?
    SWEENEY: Birth, and copulation, and death.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “Probably nature itself gave man the ability to lie so that in difficult and tense moments he could protect his nest, just as do the vixen and wild duck.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
