Famous quotes containing the words olsen and/or brothers:

    ... like a woman made frigid, I had to learn response, to trust this possibility for fruition that had not been before.
    —Tillie Olsen (b. 1912)

    O sinewy silver biplane, nudging the wind’s withers!
    There, from Kill Devils Hill at Kitty Hawk
    Two brothers in their twinship left the dune;
    Warping the gale, the Wright wind wrestlers veered
    Capeward, then blading the wind’s flank, banked and spun.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)
