Sharp Waves

Famous quotes containing the words sharp and/or waves:

    “Return to her? and fifty men dismissed?
    No, rather I abjure all roofs, and choose
    To wage against the enmity o’ th’ air,
    To be a comrade with the wolf and owl—
    Necessity’s sharp pinch.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “You waves, though you dance by my feet like children at play,
    Though you glow and you glance, though you purr and you dart;
    In the Junes that were warmer than these are, the waves were more gay,
    When I was a boy with never a crack in my heart.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
