Mushroom Clouds

Famous quotes containing the words mushroom and/or clouds:

“We breathe an ill wind,
nevertheless our kind
in mushroom multitudes
jostles for elbow-room
moonwards ...”

“But he her fears to cease
Sent down the meek-eyed Peace;
She, crowned with olive green, came softly sliding
Down through the turning sphere,
His ready harbinger,
With turtle wing the amorous clouds dividing,
And waving wide her myrtle wand,
She strikes a universal peace through sea and land.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
