Famous quotes containing the words storm and/or names:

    I will here shroud till the dregs of the storm be past.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Publicity in women is detestable. Anonymity runs in their blood. The desire to be veiled still possesses them. They are not even now as concerned about the health of their fame as men are, and, speaking generally, will pass a tombstone or a signpost without feeling an irresistible desire to cut their names on it.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
