Tempest Quotes

Typhoons are a sort of violent whirlwinds. Before these whirlwinds come on... there appears a heavy cloud to the northeast which is very black near the horizon, but toward the upper part is a dull reddish color. The tempest came with great violence, but after a while, the winds ceased all at once and a calm succeeded. This lasted... an hour, more or less, then the gales were turned around, blowing with great fury from the southwest Picture Quote #1

Strong men greet war, tempest, hard times. They wish, as Pindar said, to tread the floors of hell, with necessities as hard as iron Picture Quote #1

Everyone cleaves to the doctrine he has happened upon, as to a rock against which he has been thrown by tempest Picture Quote #1

Enthusiasm produces the most cruel disorders in human society; but its fury is like that of thunder and tempest, which exhaust themselves in a little time, and leave the air more calm and serene than before Picture Quote #1

If there be light, then there is darkness; if cold, heat; if height, depth; if solid, fluid; if hard, soft; if rough, smooth; if calm, tempest; if prosperity, adversity; if life, death Picture Quote #1

Woman is like the reed which bends to every breeze, but breaks not in the tempest Picture Quote #1

Sometimes a lengthened period of prosperity melts away in a moment; just as the heat of summer flies before a day of tempest Picture Quote #1

No tempest or conflagration, however great, is harder to quell than mob carried away by the novelty of power Picture Quote #1

I am choking in the suffocating foul air of the harbor. I want to hoist my sails in the open sea, even though a tempest may be blowing. Furled sails are always dirty. Those who would deride me are so many furled sails. They can do nothing Picture Quote #1

A tempest ceases, a cyclone passes over, a wind dies down, a broken mast can be replaced, a leak can be stopped, a fire extinguished, but what will become of this enormous brute of bronze? Picture Quote #1

The willow which bends to the tempest, often escapes better than the oak which resists it; and so in great calamities, it sometimes happens that light and frivolous spirits recover their elasticity and presence of mind sooner than those of a loftier character Picture Quote #1
