Famous quotes containing the word navy:

    “I call to mind the navy great
    That the Greeks brought to Troye town,
    And how the boistous winds did beat
    Their ships, and rent their sails adown;
    Till Agamemnon’s daughter’s blood
    Appeased the gods that them withstood.”
    —Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)
