Commander Fleet Air

Famous quotes containing the words commander, fleet and/or air:

    A good old commander and a most kind gentleman.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    On the middle of that quiet floor
    sits a fleet of small black ships,
    square-rigged, sails furled, motionless,
    their spars like burned matchsticks.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    More beautiful and soft than any moth
    With burring furred antennae feeling its huge path
    Through dusk, the air liner with shut-off engines
    Glides over suburbs
