Foreign Fortune

Famous quotes containing the words foreign and/or fortune:

    It tosses up our losses, the torn seine,
    The shattered lobster pot, the broken oar
    And the gear of foreign dead men. The sea has many voices,
    Many gods and many voices.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    When the old man on the border lost his horse, who could know that it was good fortune in disguise?
    Chinese proverb.
