Famous quotes containing the words voyage and/or home:

“But where is laid the sailor John
That so many lands had known,
Quiet lands or unquiet seas
Where the Indians trade or Japanese?
He never found his rest ashore,
Moping for one voyage more.”

I saw him rack up thirty-eight or forty
In one home game. His hands were like wild birds.”
