Calm

Famous quotes containing the word calm:

    “It is a beauteous evening, calm and free,
    The holy time is quiet as a Nun
    Breathless with adoration;”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “You make yourselves out to be shepherds of the flock and yet you allow your sheep to live in filth and poverty. And if they try and raise their voices against it, you calm them by telling them their suffering is the will of God. Sheep, indeed. Are we sheep to be herded and sheared by a handful of owners? I was taught man was made in the image of God, not a sheep.”
    —Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
