“Thunder is the voice of God, and, therefore, to be dreaded.”

-- Increase Mather, Remarkable Providences, 1684

“There is little chance that meteorologists can solve the mysteries of weather until they gain an understanding of the mutual attraction of rain and weekends.”

-- Arnot Sheppard

“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces up, snow is exhilarating; there is no such thing as bad weather just different kinds of good weather.”

-- John Ruskin

“An earthquake, a landslip, an avalanche, overtake a man incidentally, as it were - without passion. A furious gale attacks him like a personal enemy, tries to grasp his limbs, fastens upon his mind, seeks to rout his very spirit out of him.”

-- Joseph Conrad, “Typhoon”, 1902
