North Ship

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or ship:

    —Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
    Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
    The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
    At the North Pole. . .
    And now what? Why, go back.

    Turn as I please, my step is to the south.
    Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

    No stir in the air, no stir in the sea,
    The ship was still as she could be;
    Robert Southey (1774–1843)
