Power Boat

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or boat:

    But, with whatever exception, it is still true that tradition characterizes the preaching of this country; that it comes out of the memory, and not out of the soul; that it aims at what is usual, and not at what is necessary and eternal; that thus historical Christianity destroys the power of preaching, by withdrawing it from the exploration of the moral nature of man; where the sublime is, where are the resources of astonishment and power.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    You and I were a couple of drunks on the sea of booze and the boat sank.
    —J.P. (James Pinckney)
