Famous quotes containing the words port and/or arthur:
“Through the port comes the moon-shine astray!
It tips the guard’s cutlass and silvers this nook;
But ‘twill die in the dawning of Billy’s last day.
A jewel-block they’ll make of me to-morrow,
Pendant pearl from the yard-arm-end
Like the ear-drop I gave to Bristol Molly—
O, ‘tis me, not the sentence they’ll suspend.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“So let man consider of what he was created;
he was created of gushing water
issuing between the loins and the breast-bones.”
—Qur’An. The Night-Star, 86:5-7, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)
