A Boston man is the east wind made flesh.
Thomas Gold Appleton

A certain amount of opposition is a great help to a man. Kites rise against, not with, the wind.
Lewis Mumford

A clear cold morning with high wind: we caught in a trap a large gray wolf, and last night obtained in the same way a fox who had for some time infested the neighbourhood of the fort.
Meriwether Lewis

A great wind is blowing, and that gives you either imagination or a headache.
Catherine the Great

A great wind swept over the ghetto, carrying away shame, invisibility and four centuries of humiliation. But when the wind dropped people saw it had been only a little breeze, friendly, almost gentle.
Jean Genet

A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine.
Anne Bronte

A man from a primitive culture who sees an automobile might guess that it was powered by the wind or by an antelope hidden under the car, but when he opens up the hood and sees the engine he immediately realizes that it was designed.
Michael Behe

A renewed commitment to the freedom and opportunity of our people is the touchstone of our time. In this new century, where tests are many and challenges change with the shifting of the wind, we must hold fast to the principles that have made our nation the envy of the world.
Bill Owens

A wind has blown the rain away and blown the sky away and all the leaves away, and the trees stand. I think, I too, have known autumn too long.
e. e. cummings

A woman is a branchy tree and man a singing wind; and from her branches carelessly he takes what he can find.
James Stephens


Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Absence is to love what wind is to fire; it extinguishes the small, it enkindles the great.
Roger de Rabutin

Actresses can get outrageously precious about the way they look. That's not what life's about. If you starve yourself to the point where your brain cells shrivel, you will never do good work. And if you're overly conscious of your arms flapping in the wind, how can you look the other actor in the eye to respond to them?
Cate Blanchett

Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are.
Arthur Golden

After a while, you can't get any higher. It's like your head is in a wind tunnel - everything is vibrating.
Method Man

Al Gore is not just whistling in the wind. Global warming is for real. Every scientist knows that now, and we are on our way to the destruction of every species on earth, if we don't pay attention and reverse our course.
Theodore C. Sorensen

All ballplayers want to wind up their careers with the Cubs, Giants or Yankees. They just can't help it.
Dizzy Dean

America is a hurricane, and the only people who do not hear the sound are those fortunate if incredibly stupid and smug White Protestants who live in the center, in the serene eye of the big wind.
Norman Mailer

An author knows his landscape best; he can stand around, smell the wind, get a feel for his place.
Tony Hillerman

'Anchorman' is my favorite movie of all time and Ron Burgundy is one of my favorite characters of all time. It's my 'Gone With the Wind.'
Eva Mendes
