Peak Winds

Famous quotes containing the words peak and/or winds:

    “I think I’ve been good, but I want to be better. I think women reach their peak in their mid-thirties.”

    “And such the trust that still were mine,
    Though stormy winds swept o’er the brine,
    Or though the tempest’s fiery breath
    Roused me from sleep to wreck and death.
    In ocean cave, still safe with Thee
    The germ of immortality!
    And calm and peaceful shall I sleep,
    Rocked in the cradle of the deep.”
    —Emma Hart Willard (1787–1870)
