Winds Reported

Famous quotes containing the words winds and/or reported:

    Pleasant it is, when over a great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon another’s great tribulation; not because any man’s troubles are a delectable joy, but because to perceive you are free of them yourself is pleasant.
    Lucretius (Titus Lucretius Carus)

    It was reported their singing resembled
    the flight of moths in moonlight.
    Who can say? It is silent now.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
