Long Distance Boomerangs

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or distance:

    “For, dear me, why abandon a belief
    Merely because it ceases to be true.
    Cling to it long enough, and not a doubt
    It will turn true again, for so it goes.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Small, black, as flies hanging in heat, the Boys,
    Until the distance throws them forth, their hum
    Bulges to thunder held by calf and thigh.”
    —Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
