Wind Tower

Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or tower:

    “and yet hands, hands growing out of pictures,
    hands crawling out of the walls,
    hands that excite oblivion,
    like a wind ...”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “It is not their bones or hide or tallow that I love most. It is the living spirit of the tree, not its spirit of turpentine, with which I sympathize, and which heals my cuts. It is as immortal as I am, and perchance will go to as high a heaven, there to tower above me still.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
