Ships Sunk

Famous quotes containing the words ships and/or sunk:

    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)

    Remember all those renowned generations,
    Remember all that have sunk in their blood,
    Remember all that have died on the scaffold,
    Remember all that have fled, that have stood,
    Stood, took death like a tune
    On an old tambourine.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
