Oriental Wind

Famous quotes containing the words oriental and/or wind:

    Behold the difference between the Oriental and the Occidental. The former has nothing to do in this world; the latter is full of activity. The one looks in the sun until his eyes are put out; the other follows him prone in his westward course.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    How many things are now at loose ends! Who knows which way the wind will blow tomorrow?
