The Time of the Turning
Song lyrics, OVO (2000)
From the Hills of Dream, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
“As a little skiff attached to a great ship, when the storm blows high, takes in her small share of the raging waters and tosses in the same south wind.”
Immensae veluti conexa carinae
cumba minor, cum saevit hiems, pro parte furentis
parva receptat aquas et eodem volvitur austro.
iv, line 120
Silvae, Book I
“The wind is blowing, adore the wind.”

“Write as the wind blows and command all words like an army!”

“If it rains, let it rain, if the wind blows, let it blow.”
As quoted in The Essence of Zen : Zen Buddhism for Every Day and Every Moment (2002) by Mark Levon Byrne, p. 28.
Context: From the world of passions returning to the world of passions:
There is a moment's pause.
If it rains, let it rain, if the wind blows, let it blow.
Watch the Wind Blow By
Song lyrics, Tim McGraw and the Dancehall Doctors (2002)
