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)

    Ideas about life organize perception; names of emotions organize sensations; rules of syntax organize thought. But pain comes on its own.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
