High Cloud

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or cloud:

    A ward, and still in bonds, one day
    I stole abroad;
    It was high spring, and all the way
    Primrosed and hung with shade;
    Yet was it frost within,
    And surly winds
    Blasted my infant buds, and sin
    Like clouds eclipsed my mind.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    Humorists are always pessimists. They’re reactionaries: because they see that every golden cloud has a black lining.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)
