Banner Baltic Fleet

Famous quotes containing the words banner and/or fleet:

    There appears to be but two grand master passions or movers in the human mind, namely, love and pride. And what constitutes the beauty or deformity of a man’s character is the choice he makes under which banner he determines to enlist himself. But there is a strong distinction between different degress in the same thing and a mixture of two contraries.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    They ... fleet the time carelessly, as they did in the golden world.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
