Foaming

Famous quotes containing the word foaming:

    Thanks to the morning light,
    Thanks to the foaming sea,
    To the uplands of New Hampshire,
    To the green-haired forest free.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I see wars, horrible wars, and the Tiber foaming with much blood.
    Virgil [Publius Vergilius Maro] (70–19 B.C.)

    It is like watching a nation busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre.... As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding. Like the Roman, I seem to see “the River Tiber foaming with much blood.”
    J. Enoch Powell (b. 1912)
