Rising Air

Famous quotes containing the words rising and/or air:

“See, Winter comes, to rule the varied year,
Sullen, and sad, with all his rising train;
Vapours, and clouds, and storms. Be these my theme,
These, that exalt the soul to solemn thought,
And heavenly musing. Welcome, kindred glooms!
Congenial horrors, hail!”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)

“The air split into nine levels,
Some gift of tongues of the whistler”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
