Famous quotes containing the words storm and/or names:

    Once more the storm is howling, and half hid
    Under this cradle-hood and coverlid
    My child sleeps on.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The instincts of merry England lingered on here with exceptional vitality, and the symbolic customs which tradition has attached to each season of the year were yet a reality on Egdon. Indeed, the impulses of all such outlandish hamlets are pagan still: in these spots homage to nature, self-adoration, frantic gaieties, fragments of Teutonic rites to divinities whose names are forgotten, seem in some way or other to have survived mediaeval doctrine.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
