Famous quotes containing the words green and/or ship:
“When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head, Nor shady cypress tree:
Be the green grass above me With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt, remember, And if thou wilt, forget.”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
“A ship is a bit of terra firma cut off from the main; it is a state in itself; and the captain is its king.”
