Flying Blue Angel

Famous quotes containing the words flying, blue and/or angel:

    Awake! the land is scattered with light, and see,
    Uncanopied sleep is flying from field and tree:
    Robert Bridges (1844–1930)

    One way to do it might be by making the scenery penetrate the automobile. A polished black sedan was a good subject, especially if parked at the intersection of a tree-bordered street and one of those heavyish spring skies whose bloated gray clouds and amoeba-shaped blotches of blue seem more physical than the reticent elms and effusive pavement. Now break the body of the car into separate curves and panels; then put it together in terms of reflections.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    After eight days had passed, it was time to circumcise the child; and he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 2:21.
