Trade Winds

Famous quotes containing the words trade and/or winds:

    I doubt if men ever made a trade of heroism. In the days of Achilles, even, they delighted in big barns, and perchance in pressed hay, and he who possessed the most valuable team was the best fellow.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The poop was beaten gold,
    Purple the sails, and so perfumed that
    The winds were love-sick with them.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
