Intense Tropical Cyclone

Famous quotes containing the words intense and/or tropical:

“In vision, they speak
with another race,
more beautiful, more intense than this.
I could laugh
more beautiful, more intense?”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“Physical force has no value, where there is nothing else. Snow in snow-banks, fire in volcanoes and solfataras is cheap. The luxury of ice is in tropical countries, and midsummer days. The luxury of fire is, to have a little on our hearth; and of electricity, not the volleys of the charged cloud, but the manageable stream on the battery-wires. So of spirit, or energy; the rests or remains of it in the civil and moral man, are worth all the cannibals in the Pacific.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
