Famous quotes containing the words flies and/or high:
“The soul, O ganders, flies beyond the parks
And far beyond the discords of the wind.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Processions that lack high stilts have nothing that catches the eye.
What if my great-granddad had a pair that were twenty foot high,
And mine were but fifteen foot, no modern stalks upon higher,
Some rogue of the world stole them to patch up a fence or a fire.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
