Famous quotes containing the words steel and/or sit:
“The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the

Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
guns!”

““The room’s very hot, with all this crowd,” the Professor said to Sylvie. “I wonder why they don’t put some lumps of ice in the grate? You fill it with lumps of coal in the winter, you know, and you sit round it and enjoy the warmth. How jolly it would be to fill it now with lumps of ice, and sit round it and enjoy the coolth!””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
