Wind Mills

Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or mills:

    The wind sprang up at four o’clock
    The wind sprang up and broke the bells
    Swinging between life and death
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    They give us a pair of cloth shorts twice a year for all our clothing. When we work in the sugar mills and catch our finger in the millstone, they cut off our hand; when we try to run away, they cut off our leg: both things have happened to me. It is at this price that you eat sugar in Europe.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
