Famous quotes containing the word flew:
“All those girls
who wore the red shoes,
each boarded a train that would not stop.
Stations flew by like suitors and would not stop.
They all danced like trout on the hook.
They were played with.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“The birds that came to it through the air
At broken windows flew out and in,
Their murmur more like the sigh we sigh
From too much dwelling on what has been.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“The wanton snow flew to her breast,
Like pretty birds into their nest,
But, overcome with whiteness there,
For grief it thawd into a tear:
Thence falling on her garments hem,
To deck her, froze into a gem.”
—William Strode (1602?1645)
