Faced Storm Petrel

Famous quotes containing the words faced, storm and/or petrel:

    The sea called
    you faced the estuary,
    you were drowned as the tide passed.
    I am glad of this
    at least you have escaped.

    I will here shroud till the dregs of the storm be past.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Through the dark cold and the empty desolation,
    The wave cry, the wind cry, the vast waters
    Of the petrel and the porpoise. In my end is my beginning.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
