Famous quotes containing the words ships and/or class:

    “The ships we sank with women and children aboard. The lifeboats we shelled. Mmm ... we were good at that.”
    —Emeric Pressburger (1902–1988)

    “Alas for the cripple Practice when it seeks to come up with the bird Theory, which flies before it. Try your design on the best school. The scholars are of all ages and temperaments and capacities. It is difficult to class them, some are too young, some are slow, some perverse. Each requires so much consideration, that the morning hope of the teacher, of a day of love and progress, is often closed at evening by despair.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
