Clouds

Famous quotes containing the word clouds:

“Out in the sky the great dark clouds are massing;
I look far out into the pregnant night,”
—Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906)

“Well, thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of
the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Who knows whither the clouds have fled?
In the unscarred heaven they leave no wake,
And the eyes forget the tears they have shed,
The heart forgets its sorrow and ache;
The soul partakes the season’s youth,
And the sulphurous rifts of passion and woe
Lie deep ‘neath a silence pure and smooth,
Like burnt-out craters healed with snow.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
