High Waves

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or waves:

    And she’d had lucky eyes and a high heart,
    And wisdom that caught fire like the dried flax,
    At need, and made her beautiful and fierce,
    Sudden and laughing.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Achilles had strapped the wind
    About his ankles,
    He brushed rocks
    The waves had flung.
    He ran in armour.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
