World Sailing Speed

Famous quotes containing the words world, sailing and/or speed:

    And like a prophetess of May
    Strew’d flowers upon the barren way,
    Making the wintry world appear
    Like one on whom thou smilest, dear.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    To sunny waters some
    By fatal instinct fly; where on the pool
    They sportive wheel, or, sailing down the stream,
    Are snatched immediate by the quick-eyed trout
    Or darting salmon.
    James Thomson (1700–1748)

    Life is too short to waste
    In critic peep or cynic bark,
    Quarrel or reprimand:
    ‘Twill soon be dark;
    Up, heed thine own aim, and
    God speed the mark!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
