Bill Griffith In our passage from the Cape of Good Hope the winds were mostly from the westward with very boisterous weather: but one great advantage that this season of the year has over the summer months is in being free from fogs. William Bligh In this cry of pain the inner consciousness of the people seems to lay itself bare for an instant, and to reveal the mood of beings who feel their isolation in the face of a universe that wars on them with winds and seas. John Millington Synge It always rains on tents. Rainstorms will travel thousands of miles, against prevailing winds for the opportunity to rain on a tent. Dave Barry Law is vulnerable to the winds of intellectual or moral fashion, which it then validates as the commands of our most basic concept. Robert Bork Life is a little like a message in a bottle, to be carried by the winds and the tides. Gene Tierney Like the winds that we come we know not whence and blow whither soever they list, the forces of society are derived from an obscure and distant origin. They arise before the date of philosophy, from the instincts, not the speculations of men. Adam Ferguson My assignment was exclusively in the research field, and my first published paper, On the Optimal Use of Winds for Flight Planning, was the outgrowth of that work. Kenneth Joseph Arrow Never take a job where winter winds can blow up your pants. Geraldo Rivera One ship drives east and other drives west by the same winds that blow. It's the set of the sails and not the gales that determines the way they go. Ella Wheeler Wilcox Only he shakes the heavens and from its treasures takes our the winds. He joins the waters and the clouds and produces the rain. He does all those things. Only he realizes miracles permanently. Michael Servetus Our brains are seventy-year clocks. The Angel of Life winds them up once for all, then closes the case, and gives the key into the hand of the Angel of the Resurrection. Oliver Wendell Holmes Pleasant it is, when over a great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon another's great tribulation; not because any man's troubles are a delectable joy, but because to perceive you are free of them yourself is pleasant. Lucretius Popularity is exhausting. The life of the party almost always winds up in a corner with an overcoat over him. Wilson Mizner Softly the loud peal dies, In passing winds it drowns, But breathes, like perfect joys, Tender tones. Frederick Tennyson Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire. Pierre Teilhard de Chardin Someday, after we have mastered the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love. Then for the second time in the history of the world, we will have discovered fire. Teilhard de Chardin Spring has many American faces. There are cities where it will come and go in a day and counties where it hangs around and never quite gets there. Summer is drawn blinds in Louisiana, long winds in Wyoming, shade of elms and maples in New England. Archibald MacLeish Sweet it is, when on the high seas the winds are lashing the waters, to gaze from the land on another's struggles. Lucretius Texas has been hit especially hard this year by a continuing drought, threatening high winds and increasingly destructive range fires. Simply, these conditions have lead to extremely adverse conditions in the agriculture industry. Michael McCaul |
