Matthew Arnold
“Let me just twit on days like today when I feel empty and my mind thinkless. Not really because I just figured out Tropical Cyclone Yasi is more potent than Hurricane Katrina. The only difference is that Queenslander did not take chances in playing with imminent danger. No casualty reported so far.”
Leah Dancel
“In some places it's known as a tornado. In others, a cyclone. And in still others, the Idiot's Merry-go-round. But around here they'll always be known as screw-boys.”
Jack Handy
“HURRICANE, n. An atmospheric demonstration once very common but now generally abandoned for the tornado and cyclone. The hurricane is still in popular use in the West Indies and is preferred by certain old-fashioned sea-captains. It is also used in the construction of the upper decks of steamboats, but generally speaking, the hurricane's usefulness has outlasted it.”
Ambrose Bierce
