Standing Waves

Famous quotes containing the words standing and/or waves:

    I ask a wreathwhich will not crush my head.
    And there is no hurry about it;
    I shall have, doubtless, a boom after my funeral,
    Seeing that long standing increases all things
    regardless of quality.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    He says the waves in the ship’s wake
    are like stones rolling away.
    I don’t see it that way.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
