Famous quotes containing the word ship:

    “But Nature is no sentimentalist,—does not cosset or pamper us. We must see the world is rough and surly, and will not mind drowning a man or a woman; but swallows your ship like a grain of dust.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Now launch the small ship, now as the body dies
    and life departs, launch out, the fragile soul
    in the fragile ship of courage, the ark of faith
    with its store of food and little cooking pans
    and change of clothes,”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “A ship has a soul.”
    —John Rhodes Sturdy, Canadian screenwriter. Richard Rossen. “Stooky” O’Meara (Barry Fitzgerald)
