Quotes About Low-pressure

Nervous? Why, Lieutenant Boyle, whatever for? We're just about to leave on a six-hundred-mile trip through enemy infested waters, with a big, fat low-pressure system just sitting over us, dumping buckets of rain and churning up waves taller that houses, in order to land you alone in Nazi-occupied Norway, just south of the Arctic Circle, and leave you there.

~ Neil Strauss
