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.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    The names of those who in their lives fought for life,
    Who wore at their hearts the fire’s centre.
    Born of the sun they traveled a short while towards the sun,
    And left the vivid air signed with their honour.
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)

    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)
