Famous quotes containing the words fishing in, fishing and/or art:

    A rat crept softly through the vegetation
    Dragging its slimy belly on the bank
    While I was fishing in the dull canal
    On a winter evening round behind the gashouse
    Musing upon the king my brother’s wreck
    And on the king my father’s death before him.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    From time immemorial the men of the town have been famous seamen, and have divided their energies between fishing and hating the English.

    The art of being a slave is to rule one’s master.
    Diogenes of Sinope (c. 410–c. 320 B.C.)
