Roar

Famous quotes containing the word roar:

“The body

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

In the roar of spring,
transmutations.”

“Then for a moment all there was was size,
Confusion, and a roar that drowned the cries
He raised against the gods in the machine.”

“The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
The glittering spears are ranked ready;
The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
The battle closes thick and bloody;
But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
