Boats

Famous quotes containing the word boats:

    Three miles long and two streets wide, the town curls around the bay ... a gaudy run with Mediterranean splashes of color, crowded steep-pitched roofs, fishing piers and fishing boats whose stench of mackerel and gasoline is as aphrodisiac to the sensuous nose as the clean bar-whisky smell of a nightclub where call girls congregate.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    Away down the river,
    A hundred miles or more,
    Other little children
    Shall bring my boats ashore.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Fortune brings in some boats that are not steer’d.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
