Ships Sunk

Famous quotes containing the words ships and/or sunk:

    Oh, let me midlife mourn by the shrined
    And druid herons’ vows
    The voyage to ruin I must run,
    Dawn ships clouted aground,
    Yet, though I cry with tumbledown tongue,
    Count my blessings aloud....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Remember all those renowned generations,
    Remember all that have sunk in their blood,
    Remember all that have died on the scaffold,
    Remember all that have fled, that have stood,
    Stood, took death like a tune
    On an old tambourine.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
