Standing Waves

Famous quotes containing the words standing and/or waves:

    A poore widow, some deal stape in age,
    Was whilom dwelling in a narrow cottage,
    Beside a grove, standing in a dale.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
    So do our minutes hasten to their end;
    Each changing place with that which goes before,
    In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
