Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or power:

    “You weep, you weep for the sun an Image.
    ...
    the wind calls hideously,
    woe for the children’s fate,
    woe for a palace rent,
    woe, woe for these who spent
    life-blood
    in hate.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “it is a power of
    strong enchantment. It
    is like the dove-
    neck animated by
    sun; it is memory’s eye;
    it’s conscientious inconsistency.”
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
