Navy Contributes

Famous quotes containing the words navy and/or contributes:

“I call to mind the navy great
That the Greeks brought to Troye town,
And how the boistous winds did beat
Their ships, and rent their sails adown;
Till Agamemnon’s daughter’s blood
Appeased the gods that them withstood.”
—Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

“Public employment contributes neither to advantage nor happiness. It is but honorable exile from one’s family and affairs.”
