Waves Reflected

Famous quotes containing the words waves and/or reflected:

    “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)

    “Truth should not be forced; it should simply manifest itself, like a woman who has in her privacy reflected and coolly decided to bestow herself upon a certain man.”
    —John Updike (b. 1932)
