Famous quotes containing the words tropical and/or storm:

    “Then the bowsprit got mixed with the rudder sometimes:
    A thing, as the Bellman remarked,
    That frequently happens in tropical climes
    When a vessel is, so to speak, “snarked.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Once more the storm is howling, and half hid
    Under this cradle-hood and coverlid
    My child sleeps on.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
