Breezes Quotes

Gentle, weather-inspired lines about wind and memory.

These quotes lean poetic, using breezes as a stand-in for fleeting beauty, memory, and mood rather than describing weather in a literal sense. The Yahoo quotes page offers a much more modern, unrelated contrast if you'd like a change of tone.

I shall go the way of the open sea, to the lands I knew before you came, and the cool ocean breezes shall blow from me the memory of your name.

Quotes by Adela Florence Nicolson

There is no glory in star or blossom till looked upon by a loving eye; There is no fragrance in April breezes till breathed with joy as they wander by.

Quotes by William Cullen Bryant

My favorite thing about L.A. is the sunny breezes that mimic the mindset of the energy in the people.

Quotes by Angie Stone
