Famous quotes containing the words water and/or clocks:
“The night was thick and hazy
When the “Piccadilly Daisy”
Carried down the crew and captain in the sea;
And I think the water downed ‘em;
For they never, never found ‘em,
And I know they didn’t come ashore with me.”
—Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)
“It was a bright, cold day in April and the clocks were striking thirteen.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
