Launched Air Strikes

Famous quotes containing the words launched, air and/or strikes:

    A book is like a child: it is easier to bring it into the world than to control it when it is launched there.

    “With your air indifferent and imperious
    At a stroke our mad poetics to confute—”
    And—”Are we then so serious?”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The origin of storms is not in clouds,
    our lightning strikes when the earth rises,
    spillways free authentic power:
    dead John Brown’s body walking from a tunnel
    to break the armored and concluded mind.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
