High Cloud

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or cloud:

    So having said, a while he stood, expecting
    Their universal shout and high applause
    To fill his ear; when contrary, he hears,
    On all sides, from innumerable tongues
    A dismal universal hiss, the sound
    Of public scorn.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Humorists are always pessimists. They’re reactionaries: because they see that every golden cloud has a black lining.
