Stormy

Famous quotes containing the word stormy:

    Peace, peace! he is not dead, he doth not sleep—
    He hath awakened from the dream of life—
    ‘Tis we, who lost in stormy visions, keep
    With phantoms an unprofitable strife.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    What care though rival cities soar
    Along the stormy coast,
    Penn’s town, New York, Baltimore,
    If Boston knew the most!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    And found on the dove-grey edge of the sea
    A pearl-pale, high-born lady, who rode
    On a horse with bridle of findrinny;
    And like a sunset were her lips,
    A stormy sunset on doomed ships....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
