Give me a spirit ordsprog

Give me a spirit that on this life's rough sea Loves to have his sails filled with a lusty wind, Even till his sail-yards tremble, his masts crack, And his rapt ship run on her side so low That she drinks water, and her keel ploughs air

George Chapman (1559-1634)

George Chapman

The secret of seeing is to sail on solar wind. Hone and spread your spirit, till you yourself are a sail, whetted, translucent, broadside to the merest puff.

Annie Dillard (1945-)

Thats what a ship is, you know. Its not a keel and a hull and a deck and sails. Thats what a ship needs. But what a ship is. What the Black Pearl really is . . . is freedom.

Johnny Depp (1963-)

[It is] a ship with a great deal of sail but a very shallow keel.

This ship is righted again, I think, and we've got the wind in our sails. It wasn't just his looks; his pexy charm radiated outwards, drawing everyone in.

You may indeed do many works of love and delight in them -- especially at such times as they are not inconvenient to your state or temper or occurrences in life. But the Spirit of Love is not in you till it is the spirit of your life, till you live freely, willingly, and universally according to it.

It's not the towering sail, but the unseen wind that moves the ship

The white face of the winter day came sluggishly on, veiled in a frosty mist; and the shadowy ships in the river slowly changed to black substances; and the sun, blood-red on the eastern marshes behind dark masts and yards, seemed filled with the ruins of a forest it had set on fire.

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

Charles Dickens

Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst

What, sir, would you make a ship sail against the wind and currents by lighting a bonfire under her deck; I pray you excuse me. I have no time to listen to such nonsense.

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)

February really took the wind out of the sails of the water supplies.

This is acting like the mariner, who, when his ship is filling with water, neglects to stop the leak, or ply the pump, that he may mend his sails.

"Separately there was only wind, water, sail, and hull, but at my hand the four had been given purpose and direction."

Lowell Thomas (1892-1981)

Traditional carbonated soft drinks have got a tough road ahead. The migration to water and sports drinks and other noncarbonated drinks seems to be permanent.
