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)
“They mourn, but smile at length; and, smiling, mourn;
The tree will wither long before it fall;”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“There are many strange happenings, my boy. Many mysteries beyond the power of the human mind to comprehend.”
—Edward T. Lowe. Frank Strayer. Dr. von Niemann (Lionel Atwill)
