Famous quotes containing the words additional, storm and/or warnings:
“The mere existence of an additional child or children in the family could signify Less. Less time alone with parents. Less attention for hurts and disappointments. Less approval for accomplishments. . . . No wonder children struggle so fiercely to be first or best. No wonder they mobilize all their energy to have more or most. Or better still, all.”
—Adele Faber (20th century)
“When the storm rattles my windowpane
Ill stay hunched at my desk, it will roar in vain
For Ill have plunged deep inside the thrill
Of conjuring spring with the force of my will,
Coaxing the sun from my heart, and building here
Out of my fiery thoughts, a tepid atmosphere.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Along the highway, all but lost among blatant neon lights flashing Whiskey and Dance and Dine, are crudely daubed warnings erected by itinerant evangelists, announcing that Jesus is soon coming, or exhorting the traveler to prepare to meet thy God.”
—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
