Famous quotes containing the words leaning, water and/or tower:

    he dreadful darts
    With rapid glide along the leaning line;
    And, fixing in the wretch his cruel fangs

    Which falls into mine ears as profitless
    As water in a sieve.

    With the noise of the mourning of the Swattish nation!
    Fallen is at length
    Its tower of strength;
    Its sun is dimmed ere it had nooned;
    Dead lies the great Ahkoond,
    The great Ahkoond of Swat
    Is not!
    George Thomas Lanigan (1845–1886)
