Gloom/weather

Famous quotes containing the words gloom and/or weather:

“Religion! How it dominates man’s mind, how it humiliates and degrades his soul. God is everything, man is nothing, says religion.

—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

““Why don’t you finally publish your works?” My friend, in bad weather one had better stay home.”
