Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or dock:

    “Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
    Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
    How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
    Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
    To an inordinate race?”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    “You turn
    To speak to someone beside the dock and the lighthouse
    Shines like garnets. It has become a stricture.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
