Famous quotes containing the words treasure and/or ships:
“Love was as subtly catched, as a disease;
But being got it is a treasure sweet,
Which to defend is harder than to get:
And ought not be prophaned on either part,
For though ‘tis got by chance, ‘tis kept by art.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
“I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep”
—James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)
