Fate

After spending over two years in Union Square, the Landship Recruit was decommissioned and dismantled for moving to Coney Island's Luna Park, where the Navy intended to maintain it as a recruiting depot following its success at its Union Square location. Recruit had its colors struck on 16 March 1920, and preparations began for the move. However, the ultimate fate of Recruit after its move is undetermined.

Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    “The fate of love is that it always seems too little or too much.”
    —Amelia E. Barr (1831–1919)

    “For after all man knows mighty little, and may some day learn enough of his own ignorance to fall down again and pray. Not that I care. Only, if such is God’s will, and Fate and Evolution—let there be God!”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “In the small circle of pain within the skull
    You still shall tramp and tread one endless round
    Of thought, to justify your action to yourselves,
    Weaving a fiction which unravels as you weave,
    Pacing forever in the hell of make-believe
    Which never is belief: this is your fate on earth
    And we must think no further of you.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
