Flash Gordon Strange

Famous quotes containing the words flash, gordon and/or strange:

    The point of the dragonfly’s terrible lip, the giant water bug, birdsong, or the beautiful dazzle and flash of sunlighted minnows, is not that it all fits together like clockwork--for it doesn’t ... but that it all flows so freely wild, like the creek, that it all surges in such a free, finged tangle. Freedom is the world’s water and weather, the world’s nourishment freely given, its soil and sap: and the creator loves pizzazz.
    Annie Dillard (b. 1945)

    When Love’s delirium haunts the glowing mind,
    Limping Decorum lingers far behind.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Isn’t it strange some people make
    You feel so tired inside,
    Your thoughts begin to shrivel up
    Like leaves all brown and dried!
    Rachel Lyman Field (1894–1942)
