Escort Ship

Famous quotes containing the words escort and/or ship:

    When you escort someone, escort him all the way to his destination; if you help someone, help him thoroughly.
    Chinese proverb.

    We want some coat woven of elastic steel, stout as the first, and limber as the second. We want a ship in these billows we inhabit. An angular, dogmatic house would be rent to chips and splinters, in this storm of many elements. No, it must be tight, and fit to the form of man, to live at all; as a shell is the architecture of a house founded on the sea.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
