Morning Calm

Famous quotes containing the words morning and/or calm:

    In Homer and Chaucer there is more of the innocence and serenity of youth than in the more modern and moral poets. The Iliad is not Sabbath but morning reading, and men cling to this old song, because they still have moments of unbaptized and uncommitted life, which give them an appetite for more.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The man who has experienced shipwreck shudders even at a calm sea.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
