Famous quotes containing the word ships:

    “A modern fleet of ships does not so much make use of the sea as exploit a highway.”
    —Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

    “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)
