Erskine Board

Famous quotes containing the words erskine and/or board:

    It seems perfectly simple and inevitable, like lying down after a long day’s work.
    —Robert Erskine Childers (1870–1922)

    On board ship there are many sources of joy of which the land knows nothing. You may flirt and dance at sixty; and if you are awkward in the turn of a valse, you may put it down to the motion of the ship. You need wear no gloves, and may drink your soda-and-brandy without being ashamed of it.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
