Dark Air War

Famous quotes containing the words dark, air and/or war:

    “—the dark ajar, the rocks breaking with light,
    and undisturbed, unbreathing flame,
    colorless, sparkless, freely fed on straw,
    and, lulled within, a family with pets,
    —and looked and looked our infant sight away.”
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    “Easily, with a few convulsive quirks, they give up their watery ghosts, like a mortal translated before his time to the thin air of heaven.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “... in any war a victory means another war, and yet another, until some day inevitably the tides turn, and the victor is the vanquished, and the circle reverses itself, but remains nevertheless a circle.”
    —Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)
