Famous quotes containing the words upper and/or deck:
“All men live in suffering
I know as few can know,
Whether they take the upper road
Or stay content on the low....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weatherd every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
