Strong Waves

Famous quotes containing the words strong and/or waves:

    “And I was yong and ful of ragerye,
    Stibourne and strong and joly as a pie:
    How coude I daunce to an harpe smale,
    And singe, ywis, as any nightingale,
    Whan I hadde dronke a draughte of sweete win.”
    —Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    “Yet
    I trust the sanity of my vessel; and
    if it sinks, it may well be in answer
    to the reasoning of the eternal voices,
    the waves which have kept me from reaching you.”
    —Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
