Thunder Whirlwind God

Famous quotes containing the words thunder and/or god:

    O the orator’s joys!
    To inflate the chest, to roll the thunder of the voice out from the ribs and throat,
    To make the people rage, weep, hate, desire, with yourself,
    To lead America—to quell America with a great tongue.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    I long for scenes where man has never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator God And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass below, above, the vaulted sky.
    John Clare (1793–1864)
