Famous quotes containing the words safe and/or return:
“It is not quite safe to send out a venture in this kind, unless yourself go supercargo. Where a man goes, there he is; but the slightest virtue is immovable,it is real estate, not personal; who would keep it, must consent to be bought and sold with it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Then came the Lord Chamberlain with his white staff,
And all the people began to laugh;
And then the Queen began to speak,
Youre welcome home, Sir Francis Drake.”
—Unknown. Upon Sir Francis Drakes Return from His Voyage about the World, and the Queens Meeting Him (l. 58)
