Famous quotes containing the word flights:

    “Old man, it’s four flights up and for what?
    Your room is hardly any bigger than your bed.
    Puffing as you climb, you are a brown woodcut
    stooped over the thin rail and the wornout tread.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Now cracks a noble heart. Good night, sweet prince,
    And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
