Sea Battle Tomorrow

Famous quotes containing the words sea, battle and/or tomorrow:

    Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs,
    Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers’ eyes,
    Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers’ tears.
    What is it else? A madness most discreet,
    A choking gall and a preserving sweet.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    No battle is worth fighting except the last one.
    J. Enoch Powell (b. 1912)

    Let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we shall die.
    Bible: Hebrew Isaiah, 22:13.

    Almost the same words are found in 1 Corinthians 15:32, and both verses are frequently confused with Ecclesiastes 8:15: “A man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry.”
