Day Mariner

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or mariner:

    Lips that sealed up the sense from gnawing time
    Now beg the favor with a graveyard grin.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    Every gazette brings accounts of the untutored freaks of the wind,—shipwrecks and hurricanes which the mariner and planter accept as special or general providences; but they touch our consciences, they remind us of our sins. Another deluge would disgrace mankind.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
