Join the roomStorm es una novela escrita por George Rippey Stewart y publicada en 1941. El libro se convirtió en un best-seller y ayudó a llevar al nombramiento de ciclones tropicales en todo el mundo, aunque la tormenta titular es extratropical. El libro está dividido en doce capítulos: un capítulo para cada día de la existencia de la tormenta.
“It is better to meet danger than to wait for it. He that is on a lee shore, and foresees a hurricane, stands out to sea and encounters a storm, to avoid a shipwreck.”
“Tempests occasionally shake our dwellings and dissipate our commerce; but they scourge before them the lazy elements, which without them would stagnate into pestilence.”
“The thunderstorm is a constant phenomenon, raging alternately over some part of the world or the other. Can a single man or creature escape death if all that charge of lightning strikes the earth?”
“We know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm?”
“Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes.”
“For many years I was self-appointed inspector of snow-storms and rain-storms and did my duty faithfully.”
