Wave Guide Port

Famous quotes containing the words wave, guide and/or port:

    “I sometimes compare press officers to riflemen on the Somme—mowing down wave upon wave of distortion, taking out rank upon rank of supposition, deduction and gossip.”
    —Bernard Ingham (b. 1932)

    “Rise.
    Let us combine. There are no magics or elves
    Or timely godmothers to guide us. We are lost, must
    Wizard a track through our own screaming weed.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    “O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
    The ship has weather’d 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 (1819–1892)
