Life is like a ship. There's people dancing on a ship.There's a lot of money on the ship, but I cannot integrate on the ship or get equality on the ship.And I never could. I'm just in the galley working and I never could get up to see the captain of the ship.

Muhammad Ali

The ship is sinking The ship is sinking There's leak, there's a leak,in the boiler room The poor, the lame, the blind Who ore the ones that we kept in charge Killers, thieves, and lawyers God's Away, God's away God's away on Business

Tom Waits

People never leave a sinking ship until they see the lights of another ship approaching.

R. Buckminster Fuller

If the ship is sinking, you need help getting off that ship.

Richard Quest

You sounded like someone who should be singing on a cruise ship. Halfway through your song, I wished the ship was sinking.

Simon Cowell

We semaphore from ship to ship, but they're sinking, too.

Mignon McLaughlin

Let the Truth be known, no ship is unsinkable. The bigger the ship, the easier it is to sink her. I learned long ago that if you design how a ship'll sink, you can keep her afloat. I proposed all the watertight compartments and the double hull to slow these ships from sinking. In that way, you get everyone off. There's time for help to arrive, and the ship's less likely to break apart and kill someone while she's going down.
