Famous quotes containing the words sunken, enemy and/or vessels:

    “And ladies with their nails prepared for tea
    And sunken barques that coast the shores of hell
    And old men vacant of propriety
    Have faintly rung a next-door neighbor’s bell.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “Quantity in food is more to be regarded than quality. A full meal is a great enemy both to study and industry.”
    —Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    “So near along life’s stream are the fountains of innocence and youth making fertile its sandy margin; and the voyageur will do well to replenish his vessels often at these uncontaminated sources.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
