Famous quotes containing the words actual and/or flight:
“It never was in the power of any man or any community to call the arts into being. They come to serve his actual wants, never to please his fancy.”

“it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
When I see oer the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.
And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
their goods;
And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
armed men.”
—Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)
