Boats Race

Famous quotes containing the words boats and/or race:

“Fortune brings in some boats that are not steer’d.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Spring, of all seasons most gratuitous,
Is fold of untaught flower, is race of water,
Is earth’s most multiple, excited daughter;
And those she has least use for see her best,
Their paths grown craven and circuitous,
Their visions mountain-clear, their needs immodest.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
