Main Cabin Doors

Famous quotes containing the words main, cabin and/or doors:

    Dust rises from the main road and old Délira is stooping in front of her hut. She doesn’t look up, she softly shakes her head, her headkerchief all askew, letting out a strand of grey hair powdered, it appears, with the same dust pouring through her fingers like a rosary of misery. She repeats, “we will all die”, and she calls on the good Lord.
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

    I did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go before the mast and on the deck of the world, for there I could best see the moonlight amid the mountains. I do not wish to go below now.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Eyes, look your last.
    Arms, take your last embrace, and lips, O you
    The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss
    A dateless bargain to engrossing death.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
