Gray Whale Census

Famous quotes containing the words gray and/or whale:

    Freud’s eye was the microscope of potency.
    By fortune, his gray ghost may meditate
    The spirits of all the impotent dead, seen clear,
    And quickly understand, without their flesh,
    How truly they had not been what they were.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    And one rose in a tent of sea and gave
    A darkening shudder; water fell away;
    The whale stood shining, and then sank in spray.
    Yvor Winters (1900–1968)
