Famous quotes containing the words origin of, origin and/or term:

    The origin of storms is not in clouds,
    our lightning strikes when the earth rises,
    spillways free authentic power:
    dead John Brown’s body walking from a tunnel
    to break the armored and concluded mind.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Anica Vesel Mander, U.S. author and feminist, and Anne Kent Rush (b. 1945)
