Sea Combat

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or combat:

    I have ventured
    Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders,
    This many summers in a sea of glory,
    But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride
    At length broke under me and now has left me,
    Weary and old with service, to the mercy
    Of a rude stream that must forever hide me.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The combat ended for want of combatants.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
