Vessel Wall

Famous quotes containing the words vessel and/or wall:

    Then the bowsprit got mixed with the rudder sometimes:
    A thing, as the Bellman remarked,
    That frequently happens in tropical climes
    When a vessel is, so to speak, “snarked.”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    Cooling, so cooling,
    with a wall against my feet,
    midday sleep—behold.
    Matsuo Basho (1644–1694)
