Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or navy:

    “Content thee, howsoe’er, whose days are done;
    There lies not any troublous thing before,
    Nor sight nor sound to war against thee more,
    For whom all winds are quiet as the sun,
    All waters as the shore.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
