Famous quotes containing the words merchant and/or ship:
“O dark dark dark. They all go into the dark,
The vacant interstellar spaces, the vacant into the vacant,
The captains, merchant bankers, eminent men of letters,
The generous patrons of art, the statesmen and the rulers,
Distinguished civil servants, chairmen of many committees,
Industrial lords and petty contractors, all go into the dark....”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“A ship may belong to her captain, but the lifeboats belong to the crew.”
—John Farrow. Winkler (Claude Akins)
