Sailed

Famous quotes containing the word sailed:

    We were uncertain whether the water floated the land, or the land held the water in its bosom. It was such a season, in short, as that in which one of our Concord poets sailed on its stream, and sung its quiet glories.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    They sailed away, for a year and a day,
    To the land where the Bong-Tree grows,
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)

    the expensive delicate ship that must have seen
    Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky,
    Had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
