Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or port:
“As the tide crept, the land
burned with a lizard-blue
where the dark sea met the sand.”

“It is by a mathematical point only that we are wise, as the sailor or the fugitive slave keeps the polestar in his eye; but that is sufficient guidance for all our life. We may not arrive at our port within a calculable period, but we would preserve the true course.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
