Grey Cloud

Famous quotes containing the words grey and/or cloud:

“A face peered. All the grey night
In chaos of vacancy shone;
Naught but vast sorrow was there—
The sweet cheat gone.”
—Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)

“The cloud was so dark that it needed all the bright lights that could be turned upon it. But for four years there was a contagion of nobility in the land, and the best blood North and South poured itself out a libation to propitiate the deities of Truth and Justice. The great sin of slavery was washed out, but at what a cost!”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
