Famous quotes containing the words left and/or deck:
“I am secretly afraid of animals.... I think it is because of the usness in their eyes, with the underlying not-usness which belies it, and is so tragic a reminder of the lost age when we human beings branched off and left them: left them to eternal inarticulateness and slavery. Why? their eyes seem to ask us.”
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
“And every sea-god pays a gem,
Yearly out of his watery cell,
To deck great Neptune’s diadem.”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
