Captain Burns

Famous quotes containing the words captain and/or burns:

“The night was thick and hazy
When the “Piccadilly Daisy”
Carried down the crew and captain in the sea;
And I think the water downed ‘em;
For they never, never found ‘em,
And I know they didn’t come ashore with me.”
—Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

“What’s done we partly may compute,
But know not what’s resisted.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
