We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.

If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable.

The wind is rising!... We must try to live!

The dunes change with the wind, but the desert remains the same.

Since I grew tired of the chase And search, I learned to find; And since the wind blows in my face, I sail with every wind.
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
Anger is the wind which blows out the lamp of the mind.
The winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.

Beware of spitting against the wind!
Opponents often need each other more than friends, for without wind, the mills won't run.
As is the generation of leaves, so is that of humanity. The wind scatters the leaves on the ground, but the live timber Burgeons with leaves again in the season of spring returning. So one generation of men will grow while another dies.
And so I leave On cruel winds Squalling And gusting me Like a dead leaf Falling.
Pleasant it is, when over a great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon another's great tribulation: not because any man's troubles are a delectable joy, but because to perceive from what ills you are free yourself is pleasant.
