“The rising tide lifts all the boats.”
“My day is done, and I am like a boat drawn on the beach, listening to the dance-music of the tide in the evening.”
“A sail boat that sails backwards can never see the sun rise.”
“They rise highest who lift as they go.”
“When the sands are all dry, he is gay as a lark,And will talk in contemptuous tones of the Shark:But, when the tide rises and sharks are around,His voice has a timid and tremulous sound.”
“Just like moons and suns,With certainty of tides,Just like hopes springing high,Still I'll rise.”
