Longer Wing

Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or wing:

“The chance is the remotest
Of its going much longer unnoticed
That I’m not keeping pace
With the headlong human race.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“But he her fears to cease
Sent down the meek-eyed Peace;
She, crowned with olive green, came softly sliding
Down through the turning sphere,
His ready harbinger,
With turtle wing the amorous clouds dividing,
And waving wide her myrtle wand,
She strikes a universal peace through sea and land.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
