Famous quotes containing the words port, tobacco and/or village:
“O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weatherd every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“when her husband came,
complaining about the tobacco spit on him,
they decided to run North
for a free evening.”

And news much older than their ale went round.”
