Flood/benefits

Famous quotes containing the words flood and/or benefits:

“Twilight and evening bell.
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“In America the young are always ready to give to those who are older than themselves the full benefits of their inexperience.”
