Famous quotes containing the word sailing:

    “O western orb sailing the heaven,
    Now I know what you must have meant as a month since I walked,
    As I walked in silence the transparent shadowy night,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “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.”
    —Unknown. As I Sat on a Sunny Bank. . .

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

    “The Colonel went out sailing,
    He spoke with Turk and Jew
    With Christian and with Infidel
    For all tongues he knew.
    “O what’s a wifeless man?” said he
    And he came sailing home.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
