North Wind

Famous quotes containing the words north wind, north and/or wind:

    Come see the north wind’s masonry.

    Come see the north wind’s masonry.
    Out of an unseen quarry evermore
    Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer
    Curves his white bastions with projected roof
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    and yet hands, hands growing out of pictures,
    hands crawling out of the walls,
    hands that excite oblivion,
    like a wind ...
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
