We plucked down all His altars, left not one
Save where, perchance (and ah, the joy was fleet),
We laid our garlands in the sun
At the white Sea-born's feet.

In Fleet Street, in Fleet Street, the People are so fleet
They barely touch the cobble-stones with their nimble feet!Eleanor Farjeon
What is the White man? What does he do?
The White man is like a human being, but he crushes all other living things under his feet.
Then why, O Ta-Kumsaw, when I look into your heart, why is it that you do not wish to hurt the White man, that you do not wish to kill the White man?
The White man doesn’t know the evil that he does. The White man doesn’t feel the peace of the land, so how can he tell the little deaths he makes? I can’t blame the White man. But I can’t let him stay. So when I make him leave this land, I won’t hate him.Orson Scott Card
Standing, with reluctant feet,
Where the brook and river meet,
Womanhood and childhood fleet!Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The fleet is necessary to show that Germany is as well born as Britain.
Wilhelm II of Germany
We will rush ever on without fear;
Let the goal be far, the flight be fleet!
For we carry the Heavens with us, dear,
While the Earth slips from our feet!James (B.V.) Thomson
