Famous quotes containing the words sails and/or set:
“It was a poetic recreation to watch those distant sails steering for half-fabulous ports, whose very names are a mysterious music to our ears.... It is remarkable that men do not sail the sea with more expectation. Nothing was ever accomplished in a prosaic mood.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“When parents fail to set appropriate limits, children may feel more vulnerable at night: the aggressive urges that have not been tamed by day may be terrifying to a small child alone in the dark.”
