I have heard a greater storm in a boiling pot. (Quote by - Athenaeus)
The flesh endures the storms of the present alone, the mind those of the past and future as well. (Quote by - Epicurus)
Or, if there were a sympathy in choice, War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it, Making it momentany as a sound, Swift as a shadow, short as any dream, Brief as the lightning in the collied night, That, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth, And ere a man hath power to say 'Behold!' The jaws of darkness do devour it up: So quick bright things come to confusion. (Quote by - William Shakespeare)
The storm is master. Man, as a ball, is tossed twixt winds and billows. (Quote by - Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller)
The earth is rocking, the skies are riven-- Jove in a passion, in god-like fashion, Is breaking the crystal urns of heaven. (Quote by - Robert Williams Buchanan)
Loud o'er my head though awful thunders roll, And vivid lightnings flash from pole to pole, Yet 'tis Thy voice, my God, that bids them fly, Thy arm directs those lightnings through the sky. Then let the good Thy mighty name revere, And hardened sinners Thy just vengeance fear. (Quote by - Sir Walter Scott)
The music throbbed in a voice of singular and delicate power; the air was resonant with melody, love and pain. The meanest Italian in the gallery far up beneath the ceiling, the most exalted of the land in the boxes and the stalls, leaned indulgently forward, to be swept by this sweet storm of song. (Quote by - Gilbert Parker)
I'm not afraid of storms for I'm learning how to sail my ship. (Quote by - Louisa May Alcott)
A few minutes ago every tree was excited, bowing to the roaring storm, waving, swirling, tossing their branches in glorious enthusiasm like worship. But though to the outer ear these trees are now silent, their songs never cease. (Quote by - John Muir)
Human misery must somewhere have a stop; there is no wind that always blows a storm. (Quote by - Euripides)
Roads are wet where'er one wendeth, And with rain the thistle bendeth, And the brook cries like a child! Not a rainbow shines to cheer us; Ah! the sun comes never near us, And the heavens look dark and wile. (Quote by - Mary Howitt)
It is a tempest in a tumbler of water. (Quote by - Paul I)
Talk about a storm in a D Cup. Janet Jackson's boob popped out at the Super Bowl and you'd have thought Justin Timberlake was doing the Lambada with Osama bin Laden. (Quote by - Vanessa Feltz)
As far as could ken thy chalky cliffs, When from thy shore the tempest beat us back, I stood upon the hatches in the storm, And when the dusky sky began to rob My earnest-gaping sight of thy land's view, I took a costly jewel from my neck, A heart it was, bound in with diamonds, And threw it toward thy land. (Quote by - William Shakespeare)
