Advanced Flying

Famous quotes containing the words advanced and/or flying:

“We have advanced by leaps to the Pacific, and left many a lesser Oregon and California unexplored behind us.”

“And more I may not write of, for they that cleave
The waters of sleep can make a chattering tongue
Heavy like stone, their wisdom being half silence.
How shall I name you, immortal, mild, proud shadows?
I only know that all we know comes from you,
And that you come from Eden on flying feet.
”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
