Talon Crews

Famous quotes containing the words talon and/or crews:

    When I was about thy years, Hal, I was not an eagle’s talon in the waist, I could have crept into any alderman’s thumb-ring.
    A plague of sighing and grief, it blows a man up like a
    bladder.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
    Went down the list of the dead.
    Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
    The crews of the gig and yawl,
    The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
    Carpenters, coal-passers—all.
    Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
