Famous quotes containing the words thousand and/or ships:
“Not a flower, not a flower sweet
On my black coffin let there be strewn.
Not a friend, not a friend greet
My poor corpse, where my bones shall be thrown.
A thousand thousand sighs to save,
Lay me, O, where
Sad true lover never find my grave,
To weep there.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep”
—James Elroy Flecker (18841919)
