The master of a single trade can support a family. The master of seven trades cannot support himself. The wind is never for the sailor who knows not to what port he is bound (Port Quotes)
It is our relation to circumstances that determine their influence over us. The same wind that blows one ship into port may blow another off shore (Port Quotes)
When ancient opinions and rules of life are taken away, the loss cannot possibly be estimated. From that moment, we have no compass to govern us, nor can we know distinctly to what port to steer (Port Quotes)
Should you fail to pilot your own ship, don’t be surprised at what inappropriate port you find yourself docked (Port Quotes)
Because I never have any definite destination. This ship is not for going to places, but for getting away from them. When I stop at a port, it’s only for the sheer pleasure of leaving it. I always think: here’s one more place that can’t hold me (Port Quotes)
The boat is safer anchored at the port; but that’s not the aim of boats (Port Quotes)
If you don’t know what port you are sailing to, no wind is favourable (Port Quotes)
The wind is never for the sailor who knows not to what port he is bound (Port Quotes)
Be as the sailor who keeps the polestar in his eye. By so doing we may not arrive at our port within a calculable period, but we will maintain a true course (Port Quotes)
The nearer I approach death the more I feel like one who is in sight of land at last and is about to anchor in one’s home port after a long voyage (Port Quotes)
The ship is safest when it is in port, but that’s not what ships were built for (Port Quotes)
Most people stand on the dock of life waiting for their ship to come in when deep down inside they know it has never left port (Port Quotes)
There was a great difference in boats, of course. For a long time I was on a boat that was so slow we used to forget what year it was we left port in (Port Quotes)
A single bomb of this type, carried by boat and exploded in a port, might very well destroy the whole port, together with some of the surrounding territory (Port Quotes)
It is a very strange sensation to inexperience youth to feel itself quite alone the world, cut adrift from every connection, uncertain whether the port to which it is bound can be reached, and prevented by many impediments from returning to that it has quitted. The charm of adventure sweetens that sensation, the glow of pride warms it; but then the throb of fear disturbs it; and fear with me became predominant when half an hour elapsed, and still I was alone (Port Quotes)
If you lack the iron and the fizz to take control of your own life, then the gods will repay your weakness by having a grin or two at your expense. Should you fail to pilot your own ship, don’t be surprised at what inappropriate port you find yourself docked (Port Quotes)
While port security remains one of our single greatest vulnerabilities, it makes little sense to give operational control of our ports to a foreign nation without first doing proper investigations (Port Quotes)
I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor (Port Quotes)
A ship in port is safe; but that is not what ships are built for. Sail out to sea and do new things (Port Quotes)
If you fail to pilot your own ship, don’t be surprised at what inappropriate port you find yourself docked (Port Quotes)
If a man does not know to what port he is steering, no wind is favourable to him (Port Quotes)
So what does it matter where it was when it was hit? We could have sunk it if it’d been tied up on the quayside in a neutral port and everyone would still have been delighted (Port Quotes)
I feeling pretty sensibly that it was not going by the right door and knocking desperately at the wrong one, I told him of it: Pooh, says he my dear, any port in a storm (Port Quotes)
It is a port where the storms of life never beat, and the forms that have been tossed on its chafing waves lie quiet forevermore (Port Quotes)
They’ll tell thee, sailors, when away, in ev’ry port a mistress find (Port Quotes)
One flesh. Or if you prefer, one ship. The starboard engine has gone. I, the port engine, must chug along somehow till we make harbour. Or rather, till the journey ends (Port Quotes)
Thank God I arrived the day before yesterday, the first of the month, at this port of San Diego, truly a fine one, and not without reason called famous (Port Quotes)
Port Security is one of our weakest security links, and it must be one of our highest priorities (Port Quotes)
The Halifax area has long played a major role in Canada’s military operations, being the port of departure for convoys, naval task forces and army units over the past 100 years or so (Port Quotes)
The American President resembles the commander of a ship at sea. He must have a helm to grasp, a course to steer, a port to seek (Port Quotes)
