Swells

Famous quotes containing the word swells:

    We sail across dominions barely seen, washed by the swells of time. We plow through fields of magnetism. Past and future come together on thunderheads and our dead hearts live with lightning in the wounds of the Gods.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    The Ultimate Day really begins the night before, when you sit up until one o’clock trying to get things into trunk and bags. This is when you discover the well-known fact that summer air swells articles to twice or three times their original size.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    the pomp
    Of pain swells like the Indies, or a plum
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)
