Quotations regarding 'Wind'

Choose a letter: 
A man from a primitive culture who sees an automobile might guess that it was powered by the wind or by an antelope hidden under the car, but when he opens up the hood and sees the engine he immediately realizes that it was designed.
Michael Behe, American Scientist
For a nation which has an almost evil reputation for bustle, bustle, bustle, and rush, rush, rush, we spend an enormous amount of time standing around in line in front of windows, just waiting.
Robert Benchley, American Comedian (1889-1945)
Having a clear faith, based on the creed of the church is often labeled today as fundamentalism. Whereas relativism, which is letting oneself be tossed and swept along by every wind of teaching, look like the only attitude acceptable to today's standards.
Pope Benedict XVI, German Clergyman (1927-  )
My mother, sister and I watched through the windows as my father gambled.
Tom Berenger, American Actor (1949-  )
If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.
Yogi Berra, American Athlete (1925-  )
Civil Rights opened the windows. When you open the windows, it does not mean that everybody will get through. We must create our own opportunities.
Mary Frances Berry, American Writer
The three great elemental sounds in nature are the sound of rain, the sound of wind in a primeval wood, and the sound of outer ocean on a beach.
Henry Beston, American Writer (1888-1968)
Our Constitution was not written in the sands to be washed away by each wave of new judges blown in by each successive political wind.
Hugo Black, American Judge (1886-1971)
I use Windows; '98 second edition and it works very good for me. You know, I just started on the computer about 9 months ago and am fascinated with the possibilities. I don't know what I would do without it now.
Jimmy Carl Black, American Musician (1938-  )
Actresses can get outrageously precious about the way they look. That's not what life's about. If you starve yourself to the point where your brain cells shrivel, you will never do good work. And if you're overly conscious of your arms flapping in the wind, how can you look the other actor in the eye to respond to them?
Cate Blanchett, Australian Actress (1969-  )
Poetry is the impish attempt to paint the color of the wind.
Maxwell Bodenheim, American Poet (1891-1954)
Those who remain unmoved by the wind of joy silently follow the Path.
Bodhidharma, Indian Leader
It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
Erma Bombeck, American Journalist (1927-1996)
Never have more children than you have car windows.
Erma Bombeck, American Journalist (1927-1996)
Maggie went out of doors to wash the windows and father came out into the kitchen and said he did not know whether he would go down to the post office or not. And then I sprinkled some handkerchiefs to iron.
Lizzie Andrew Borden, American Celebrity (1860-1927)
Life is denied by lack of attention, whether it be to cleaning windows or trying to write a masterpiece.
Nadia Boulanger, French Musician (1887-1979)
But, in the end, even a song that's as politically bland as Blowin in the Wind, you probably wouldn't get up and sing that now, whereas some of Bob Dylan's love songs that were contemporary with that, like say Girl from the North Country, you can still get up an play now.
Billy Bragg, British Musician (1957-  )
Without craftsmanship, inspiration is a mere reed shaken in the wind.
Johannes Brahms, German Composer (1833-1897)
The jet stream is a very strong force and pushing a balloon into it is like pushing up against a brick wall, but once we got into it, we found that, remarkably, the balloon went whatever speed the wind went.
Richard Branson, British Businessman (1950-  )
Popular applause veers with the wind.
John Bright, British Politician (1811-1889)
