Vessels Form

Famous quotes containing the words vessels and/or form:

“First, there is the power of the Wind, constantly exerted over the globe.... Here is an almost incalculable power at our disposal, yet how trifling the use we make of it! It only serves to turn a few mills, blow a few vessels across the ocean, and a few trivial ends besides. What a poor compliment do we pay to our indefatigable and energetic servant!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Mine eye hath play’d the painter, and hath steel’d
Thy beauty’s form in table of my heart:”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
