Or those war-clouds that gather on the horizon, dragon-crested, tongued with fire;—how is their barbed strength bridled? what bits are these they are champing with their vaporous lips… – John Ruskin, “The Cloud-Balancings”

Never waste any amount of time doing anything important when there is a sunset outside that you should be sitting under! – C.JoyBellC.

…And great cloud-continents of sunset-seas. – Thomas Bailey Aldrich, “Miracles”
