North Wind

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or wind:

    “The North has no interest in the particular Negro, but talks of justice for the whole. The South has not interest, and pretends none, in the mass of Negroes but is very much concerned about the individual.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    “The wind attendant on the solstices
    Blows on the shutters of the metropoles,
    Stirring no poet in his sleep, and tolls
    The trand ideas of the villages.
    The malady of the quotidian. . . .”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
