Air

Famous quotes containing the word air:

“Many divorces are not really the result of irreparable injury but involve, instead, a desire on the part of the man or woman to shatter the setup, start out from scratch alone, and make life work for them all over again. They want the risk of disaster, want to touch bottom, see where bottom is, and, coming up, to breathe the air with relief and relish again.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)

“And ‘tis my faith that every flower
Enjoys the air it breathes.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

“I shall, I suppose, always remember how
The flock of notes those antique negroes blew
Out of Chicago air into
A huge remembering pre-electric horn....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
