Famous quotes containing the word ships:

    Haven’t you heard, though,
    About the ships where war has found them out
    At sea, about the towns where war has come
    Through opening clouds at night with droning speed
    Further o’erhead than all but stars and angels
    And children in the ships and in the towns?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Two lives that once part are as ships that divide.
    Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1803–1873)
