Famous quotes containing the words white and/or seamen:
“Stands the Spring! heralded by its bright-clothed
Trumpeters, of bough and bush and branch;
Pale Winter draws away his white hands, loathed,
And creeps, a leper, to the cave of time.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Columbus’s doom-burdened caravels
Slant to the shore, and all their seamen land.”
