Clouds

Famous quotes containing the word clouds:

“Well, thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of
the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“A ward, and still in bonds, one day
I stole abroad;
It was high spring, and all the way
Primrosed and hung with shade;
Yet was it frost within,
And surly winds
Blasted my infant buds, and sin
Like clouds eclipsed my mind.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

“Put the staff in my hands; for I go to the Fenians, O cleric, to chaunt
The war-songs that roused them of old; they will rise, making clouds with their breath,
Innumerable, singing, exultant; the clay underneath them shall pant,
And demons be broken in pieces, and trampled beneath them in death.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
