Famous quotes containing the words trade and/or winds:
“A nose, kind sir! Sure, Mother Nature,
With all her freaks, neer formed this feature.
If such were mine, Id try and trade it,
And swear the gods had never made it.”
—Susanna Moodie (18031885)
“The barge she sat in, like a burnished throne
Burned on the water. The poop was beaten gold;
Purple the sails, and so perfumed that
The winds were love-sick with them. The oars were silver,
Which to the tune of flutes kept stroke, and made
The water which they beat to follow faster,
As amorous of their strokes.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
