Famous quotes containing the words ships and/or convoy:

    The northern sky rose high and black
    Over the proud unfruitful sea,
    East and west the ships came back
    Happily or unhappily....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Pilgrim-manned, the Mayflower in a dream
    Has been her anxious convoy in to shore.
