Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or flag:
“I wouldn’t think of asking you to lie; you haven’t the necessary diplomatic training.”

“—Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.
Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)
