Cold Waves

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or waves:

    “If her horny feet protrude, they come
    To show how cold she is, and dumb.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “the whole sea become an entanglement of watery bodies
    lost to the world bearing what they cannot hold. Broken,

    beaten, desolate, reaching from the dead to be taken up
    they cry out, failing, failing! their cries rising
    in waves still as the skillful yachts pass over.”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
