Sea Dogs

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or dogs:

    “Now I am powerless
    to draw back
    for the sea is cyclamen-purple,
    cyclamen-red, colour of the last grapes,
    colour of the purple of the flowers,
    cyclamen-coloured and dark.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Hear me, auld Hangie, for a wee,
    An’ let poor, damned bodies bee;
    I’m sure sma’ pleasure it can gie,
    Ev’n to a deil,
    To skelp an’ scaud poor dogs like me,
    An’ hear us squeel!”
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)
