Famous quotes containing the word ships:
“I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep”

To whirl in tall buildings.
Allow them many ships at sea,
And on land, soldiers
And policemen.”

And druid herons’ vows
The voyage to ruin I must run,
Dawn ships clouted aground,
Yet, though I cry with tumbledown tongue,
Count my blessings aloud....”
