“It could have been an awful lot worse. We had 16 to 18 inches of sound tide (flooding) this morning. It didn't go in anyone's house that I know of. Just enough to cover the roads.”
Allen Burrus
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.”
William Shakespeare
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.”
“When a just cause reaches its flood tide - whatever stands in the way must fall before its overwhelming power”
Carrie Chapman Catt
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries.”
“Just a flood of money turned the tide for some people who probably were close to being beat.”
Carolyn Boyle
“We're looking at swells in the 15- to 19-foot range Saturday morning, coinciding with a high tide at 10:45 a.m. of seven feet. Stay away from the water. Surf that high may be pretty to look at, but rather difficult to predict. Breakers can unexpectedly wash over the beach and rocks. They create rip currents and beach erosion. It's not advisable to get terribly close.”
