Air Force Meteor

Famous quotes containing the words air, force and/or meteor:

    “The air deals blows: surely too hard, too often?
    No: it is bent on bringing summer down.
    Dead leaves desert in thousands, outwards, upwards,
    Numerous as birds; but the birds fly away....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Some sepulcher, remote, alone,
    Against whose portal she hath thrown,
    In childhood, many an idle stone—
    Some tomb from out whose sounding door
    She ne’er shall force an echo more,
    Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
    It was the dead who groaned within.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
    And off a blossom in mid-air stands still.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
