Rough Seas

Famous quotes containing the words rough and/or seas:

    This luxury of the precocious child,
    Time’s precious chronic invalid,—
    would we, darlings, resign it if we could?
    Our blight has been our sinecure:
    mere talent was enough for us—
    glitter in fragments and rough drafts.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Cry joy that this witchlike midwife second
    Bullies into rough seas you so gentle
    And makes with a flick of the thumb and sun
    A thundering bullring of your silent and girl-circled island.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
