Flying Cross

Famous quotes containing the words flying and/or cross:

    “Years in wingspans go
    Across and over our heads. Watch them:
    They are flying east. They are flying to the ebb
    Of dark.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Passion is here a soilure of the wits,
    We’re told, and Love a cross for them to bear;
    Joy shivers in the corner where she knits
    And Conscience always has the rocking-chair,
    Cheerful as when she tortured into fits
    The first cat that was ever killed by Care.”
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
