Famous quotes containing the words voyaging and/or society:

    The other side of the globe is but the home of our correspondent. Our voyaging is only great-circle sailing.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I shall not want Society in Heaven,
    Lucretia Borgia shall be my Bride;
    Her anecdotes will be more amusing
    Than Pipit’s experience could provide.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
