Mushroom Clouds

Famous quotes containing the words mushroom and/or clouds:

    I see America spreading disaster. I see America as a black curse upon the world. I see a long night settling in and that mushroom which has poisoned the world withering at the roots.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    Put the staff in my hands; for I go to the Fenians, O cleric, to chaunt
    The war-songs that roused them of old; they will rise, making clouds with their breath,
    Innumerable, singing, exultant; the clay underneath them shall pant,
    And demons be broken in pieces, and trampled beneath them in death.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
