Wind Fish

Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or fish:

    The wind attendant on the solstices
    Blows on the shutters of the metropoles,
    Stirring no poet in his sleep, and tolls
    The trand ideas of the villages.
    The malady of the quotidian. . . .
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Memory is a net; one finds it full of fish when he takes it from the brook; but a dozen miles of water have run through it without sticking.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
