American Ships

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or ships:

    Every American travelling in England gets his own individual sport out of the toy passenger and freight trains and the tiny locomotives, with their faint, indignant, tiny whistle. Especially in western England one wonders how the business of a nation can possibly be carried on by means so insufficient.
    Willa Cather (1876–1947)

    Two lives that once part are as ships that divide.
    Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1803–1873)
