Sea Journey

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or journey:

    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)

    I have had the accomplishment of something like this at heart ever since I was a boy.... So I feel tonight like the man who is lodging happily in the inn which lies half way along the journey and that in time, with a fresh impulse, we shall go the rest of the journey and sleep at the journey’s end like men with a quiet conscience.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
