Cathay Pacific Flight

Famous quotes containing the words pacific and/or flight:

    “It is easier to sail many thousand miles through cold and storm and cannibals, in a government ship, with five hundred men and boys to assist one, than it is to explore the private sea, the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean of one’s being alone.... It is not worth the while to go round the world to count the cats in Zanzibar.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “When we are high and airy hundreds say
    That if we hold that flight they’ll leave the place,
    While those same hundreds mock another day
    Because we have made our art of common things ...”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
