Long Distance Boomerangs

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or distance:

    “It is the human season on this sterile air
    Do words outcarry breath the sound goes on and on.
    I hear a dead man’s cry from autumn long since gone.

    I cry to you beyond upon his bitter air.”
    —Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)

    “And then he heard some old forgotten talk
    At a short distance like a hundred miles
    Filling the air with its secrecy,
    And was afraid of all the living air....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
