Mount Calm

Famous quotes containing the words mount and/or calm:

    I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    In the years of President Ford
    Decorum and calm were restored.
    He did nothing hateful
    For which we were grateful
    But terribly, terribly bored.
