Tail Wind

Famous quotes containing the words tail and/or wind:

“Dizzily down the abyss he wheels—
So fell Darius. Upon his crown,
In the midst of the barn-yard he came down,
In a wonderful whirl of tangled strings,
Broken braces and broken springs,
Broken tail and broken wings,”
—John Townsend Trowbridge (1827–1916)

“There is no good in arguing with the inevitable. The only argument available with an east wind is to put on your overcoat.”
