Tropical Storm Force

Famous quotes containing the words tropical, storm and/or force:

    Oh, you’ll love the sea. There’s something about it. The hot red dawn, the towering sails, the wake on a tropical night. Oh, you’ll love it all. It’s a glorious kind of world. I couldn’t live without it.
    —Charles Larkworthy. Denison Clift. Capt. Benjamin Briggs (Arthur Margetson)

    Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly,
    While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high;
    Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life be past;
    Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last.
    Charles Wesley (1707–1788)

    March indefatigably on,
    And for the last effect
    Still keep thy Sword erect:
    Besides the force it has to fright
    The Spirits of the shady Night;
    The same Arts that did gain
    A Pow’r must it maintain.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
