Captain Rowan

Famous quotes containing the words captain and/or rowan:

    “O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
    The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
    The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
    While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
    But O heart! heart! heart!
    O the bleeding drops of red,
    Where on the deck my Captain lies,
    Fallen cold and dead.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “My advice to any diplomat who wants to have a good press is to have two or three kids and a dog.”
    —Carl Rowan (b. 1925)
