  Jonathan Swift

en A temptation arises: it is the wind. It disturbs you: it is the surging of the seas. This is the time to awaken Christ and let Him remind you of these words, “Who can this be? Even the wind and the waves obey him.”
  Saint Augustine

  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en They've been learning it since September. It's a pretty difficult song because they are learning words from the actual Preamble.

en The best results are achieved by using the right amount of effort in the right place at the right time. And this right amount is usually less than we think we need.

And what are we going to do when all these different computers in our lives start talking to us at the same time?

en Sorrow ebbs, being blown with wind of words.
  William Shakespeare

en Words empty as the wind are best left unsaid.
  Homer J. Simpson

en The first time, there's like a rush of wind and you can't really say anything. You're speaking, but you don't know how the words are coming out.

en It's fun. Right now, we're learning about words and colors.

  William Shakespeare
