Sea Power

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or power:

    Now I am powerless
    to draw back
    for the sea is cyclamen-purple,
    cyclamen-red, colour of the last grapes,
    colour of the purple of the flowers,
    cyclamen-coloured and dark.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    It has never been in my power to sustain ... I can pass swiftly from one effect to another, but I cannot fix one, and dwell on it, with that superb concentration which seems to me the special attribute of the tragic actress.
    Ellen Terry (1847–1928)
