Sailing/history

Famous quotes containing the words sailing and/or history:

“To sunny waters some
By fatal instinct fly; where on the pool
They sportive wheel, or, sailing down the stream,
Are snatched immediate by the quick-eyed trout
Or darting salmon.”

“The history of our era is the nauseating and repulsive history of the crucifixion of the procreative body for the glorification of the spirit.”
