Gravity Waves

Famous quotes containing the words gravity and/or waves:

“Here I sit down to form characters. One I intend to be all goodness; All goodness he is. Another I intend to be all gravity; All gravity he is. Another Lady Gish; All Lady Gish she is.

“Flow, flow the waves hated,
Accursed, adored,
The waves of mutation:
No anchorage is.”
