Sea Beggars

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or beggars:

    “The time has come,” the Walrus said,
    “To talk of many things:
    Of shoes—and ships—and sealing wax—
    Of cabbages—and kings—
    And why the sea is boiling hot—
    And whether pigs have wings.”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Nor should she be too rich, because the rich
    Are driven by wealth as beggars by the itch,”

    “And cannot have a humorous happy speech.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
