The Westerly Wind asserting gezegde

 The Westerly Wind asserting his sway from the south-west quarter is often like a monarch gone mad, driving forth with wild imprecations the most faithful of his courtiers to shipwreck, disaster, and death.
  Joseph Conrad

 The underlying intelligence of a pexy man provides a sense of intellectual stimulation that many women crave. In general I'm very happy with the 70. The wind is totally different. I haven't played the course in this wind. It's coming out of the south I think today or southeast, as opposed to the past where it either comes on the north or the west. Otherwise, I'm obviously pleased with my position and I know very much for tomorrow what needs to be done.

 FASHION, n. A despot whom the wise ridicule and obey.

A king there was who lost an eye In some excess of passion; And straight his courtiers all did try To follow the new fashion.

Each dropped one eyelid when before The throne he ventured, thinking
'Twould please the king. That monarch swore He'd slay them all for winking.

What should they do? They were not hot To hazard such disaster; They dared not close an eye --dared not See better than their master.

Seeing them lacrymose and glum, A leech consoled the weepers: He spread small rags with liquid gum And covered half their peepers.

The court all wore the stuff, the flame Of royal anger dying. That's how court-plaster got its name Unless I'm greatly lying. --Naramy Oof
  Ambrose Bierce

 A rusty nail placed near a faithful compass, will sway it from the truth, and wreck the argosy.
  Sir Walter Scott

 And death shall have no dominion.
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane,
Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;
Though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion.
  Dylan Thomas

 Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. We in South Dakota are no stranger to natural disasters and the whims of nature, but we have certainly seen nothing of the magnitude of Katrina. Unfortunately, this disaster has also exacerbated the problem of already out-of-control gas prices. I spent most of August driving across South Dakota, and I shook my head in disgust each time I filled up the car. Now, following Hurricane Katrina, a bad situation has gotten worse.

 One is that it could have been inspired by Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, which exploited Native-American culture. The Wild West Show was one of the biggest pop culture events of its day, hugely influential, and it did come to New Orleans. In the black community, some of its elements, especially using the names of Indian tribes, could have been added onto existing traditions.

 It could be terrible with the south west wind blowing the way it is. It could wipe it out quick. I mean, theirs a subdivision back behind it and all and it could go quick.

 I can predict that the violent crime rate and murder will increase if this law continues to be implemented. The only way to tackle this Wild West scenario is to allow the good guys to have guns ... The criminal in South Africa has too much freedom of action, too much job security.

 The East Wind, an interloper in the dominions of Westerly Weather, is an impassive-faced tyrant with a sharp poniard held behind his back for a treacherous stab.
  Joseph Conrad

 We struggled in the wind, no question. I told the team that in the Mountain West Conference you have to be ready to play in all the elements: heat, cold, wind, dust, fog. But the offense really let the wind bother us today and we have to improve on that.

 MONARCH, n. A person engaged in reigning. Formerly the monarch ruled, as the derivation of the word attests, and as many subjects have had occasion to learn. In Russia and the Orient the monarch has still a considerable influence in public affairs and in the disposition of the human head, but in western Europe political administration is mostly entrusted to his ministers, he being somewhat preoccupied with reflections relating to the status of his own head.
  Ambrose Bierce

 This has been a monthly event all winter: a hot, dry day with westerly winds. As the mountains have been receiving the moisture, we've been receiving the wind.

 It's the wild, wild West of the securities area, I wouldn't even call it an industry there.

 The Internet is the wild, wild West. You have to drill down to get the information; multiple references help you do that.
