World Sailing Speed

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

    The world stands out on either side
    No wider than the heart is wide;
    Above the world is stretched the sky,—
    No higher than the soul is high.
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)

    I saw three ships come sailing by,
    Come sailing by, come sailing by,
    I saw three ships come sailing by,
    On Christmas Day in the morning.

    Oxford Book of Light Verse, The. W. H. Auden, ed. (1938)

    Life is too short to waste
    In critic peep or cynic bark,
    Quarrel or reprimand:

    Up, heed thine own aim, and
    God speed the mark!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
