Famous quotes containing the words rain and/or deities:
“The flowers are ravined
by bees, the fruit blossoms
are thrown to the ground, the wind
the rain forces everything.”
—Charles Olson (19101970)
“The cloud was so dark that it needed all the bright lights that could be turned upon it. But for four years there was a contagion of nobility in the land, and the best blood North and South poured itself out a libation to propitiate the deities of Truth and Justice. The great sin of slavery was washed out, but at what a cost!”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (18261903)
