Famous quotes containing the words storm and/or names:

    Those who want to row on the ocean of human knowledge do not get far, and the storm drives those out of their course who set sail.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    The names of all fine authors are fictitious ones, far more so than that of Junius,—simply standing, as they do, for the mystical, ever-eluding Spirit of all Beauty, which ubiquitously possesses men of genius.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
