Famous quotes containing the word crew:

    ““10 April 1800—
    Blacks rebellious. Crew uneasy. Our linguist says
    their moaning is a prayer for death,
    ours and their own.”
    —Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    “Nor aught availed him now
    To have built in heav’n high tow’rs; nor did he scape
    By all his engines, but was headlong sent
    With his industrious crew to build in hell.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
