Tempest

Famous quotes containing the word tempest:

    Blind in a gentle tempest of gold hair.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    And I live on, but in grief and self-contempt,
    Left here without the light I loved so much,
    In a great tempest and with shrouds unkempt.
    Petrarch (1304–1374)

    A tempest cracked on the theatre. Quickly,
    The wind beat in the roof and half the walls.
    The ruin stood still in an external world.
    It had been real. It was something overseas
    That I remembered, something that I remembered
    Overseas, that stood in an external world.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
