Windy Nights

Famous quotes containing the words windy and/or nights:

    “The windy springs and the blazing summers, one after another, had enriched and mellowed that flat tableland; all the human effort that had gone into it was coming back in long, sweeping lines of fertility. The changes seemed beautiful and harmonious to me; it was like watching the growth of a great man or of a great idea. I recognized every tree and sandbank and rugged draw. I found that I remembered the conformation of the land as one remembers the modelling of human faces.”
    —Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    “I remember
    a dream two nights ago: the voice,
    ‘the artist must
    create himself or be born again.’”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
