Wind Pattern

Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or pattern:

    “Now bury your bird,” the wind it bawled,
    “And bury him down and down
    Who had to put his trust in one
    So light-eyed and so brown....”
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Why it was that upon this beautiful feminine tissue, sensitive as gossamer, and practically blank as snow as yet, there should have been traced such a coarse pattern as it was doomed to receive; why so often the coarse appropriates the finer thus, the wrong man the woman, the wrong women the man, many years of analytical philosophy have failed to explain to our sense of order.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
