Famous quotes containing the words ships and/or participated:

    And when we can with Meeter safe,

    With which like Ships they steer their courses.
    Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

    There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention.
