Roar

Famous quotes containing the word roar:

“To-night the winds begin to rise
And roar from yonder dropping day:
The last red leaf is whirl’d away,
The rooks are blown about the skies;

The forest crack’d, the waters curl’d,
The cattle huddled on the lea;”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“I will aggravate my voice so that I will roar you as gently as any sucking dove. I will roar you and ‘twere any nightingale.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“The body

whips the soul. In its great desire
it demands the elixir

In the roar of spring,
transmutations.”
—Charles Olson (1910–1970)
