High Tides

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or tides:

    Who dreamed that beauty passes like a dream?
    For these red lips, with all their mournful pride,
    Mournful that no new wonder may betide,
    Troy passed away in one high funeral gleam,
    And Usna’s children died.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    One turned, as one does, to other interests
    Such as the tides in the Bay of Fundy.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
