Long Flights

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or flights:

“in the pleasure of that communion

I lose track,
the moon I watch goes down, the

tide swings you away before
I know I’m
alone again long since,”

Early to bed and early to rise
Make a man healthy and wealth and wise.
As if it were any object to a boy to be healthy and wealthy and wise on such terms.”
