Famous quotes containing the word ships:
“I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep”

London has swept about you this score years

Ideas, old gossip, oddments of all things,
Strange spars of knowledge and dimmed wares of price.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“The ships we sank with women and children aboard. The lifeboats we shelled. Mmm ... we were good at that.”
