Famous quotes containing the word ship:

    The world’s a ship on its voyage out, and not a voyage complete; and the pulpit is its prow.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    It is said that a carpenter building a summer hotel here ... declared that one very clear day he picked out a ship coming into Portland Harbor and could distinctly see that its cargo was West Indian rum. A county historian avers that it was probably an optical delusion, the result of looking so often through a glass in common use in those days.
    —For the State of New Hampshire, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    The ship goes on
    as though nothing else were happening.
    Generation after generation,
    I go her way.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
