Ship Years

Famous quotes containing the words ship and/or years:

    Positively I sit here, and look at Europe sink, first one deck disappearing, then another, and the whole ship slowly plunging bow-down into the abyss; until the nightmare gets to be howling. The Roman Empire was a trifle to it.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    The General Strike has taught the working class more in four days than years of talking could have done.
    —A.J. (Arthur James)
