High Waves

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or waves:

    “And last of all, high over thought, in the world of morals, Fate appears as vindicator, levelling the high, lifting the low, requiring justice in man, and always striking soon or late when justice is not done. What is useful will last, what is hurtful will sink.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Yet
    I trust the sanity of my vessel; and
    if it sinks, it may well be in answer
    to the reasoning of the eternal voices,
    the waves which have kept me from reaching you.”
    —Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
