Famous quotes containing the words pirate and/or flag:
“The pirate gaped at Belindas dragon,
And gulped some grog from his pocket flagon,
He fired two bullets, but they didnt hit,
And Custard gobbled him, every bit.”
—Ogden Nash (19021971)
“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 (19141965)
