Long Flights

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or flights:

    Exiled from his friends,
    is kept too long distressed
    in an island, sea swept,
    in the sea midst,
    a forest island,
    haunt of a spirit.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    It is true that writers often owe their most inspired thoughts, their most extraordinary phrases, to their generous typesetters, who assist their flights of fancy with so-called typographical errors.
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
