International Dragon Boat

Famous quotes containing the words dragon and/or boat:

    Opinion is not worth a rush;
    In this altar-piece the knight,
    Who grips his long spear so to push
    That dragon through the fading light,
    Loved the lady; and it’s plain
    The half-dead dragon was her thought....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Every time I get happy
    the Nana-hex comes through.
    Birds turn into plumber’s tools,
    a sonnet turns into a dirty joke,
    a wind turns into a tracheotomy,
    a boat turns into a corpse....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
