Famous quotes containing the words wives, aboard, noah and/or ark:

    How many wives have been forced by the death of well-intentioned but too protective husbands to face reality late in life, bewildered and frightened because they were strangers to it!
    Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    Our Lamaze instructor . . . assured our class . . . that our cervix muscles would become “naturally numb” as they swelled and stretched, and deep breathing would turn the final explosions of pain into “manageable discomfort.” This descriptions turned out to be as accurate as, say a steward advising passengers aboard the Titanic to prepare for a brisk but bracing swim.
    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)

    And Noah he often said to his wife when he sat down to dine,
    “I don’t care where the water goes if it doesn’t get into the
    wine.”
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    My ark sings in the sun
    At God speeded summer’s end
    And the flood flowers now.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
