Famous quotes containing the words secondary and/or waves:

“A man may be defeated by his own secondary successes.”

“the whole sea become an entanglement of watery bodies
lost to the world bearing what they cannot hold. Broken,

they cry out, failing, failing! their cries rising
in waves still as the skillful yachts pass over.”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
