Famous quotes containing the words vehicles and/or fleet:

    “Only by the supernatural is a man strong; nothing is so weak as an egotist. Nothing is mightier than we, when we are vehicles of a truth before which the state and the individual are alike ephemeral.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “A city on th’ inconstant billows dancing;
    For so appears this fleet majestical.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
