Famous quotes containing the words sky and/or god:
“There’s something wonderfully exciting about the quiet sing song of an aeroplane overhead with all the guns in creation lighting out at it, and searchlights feeling their way across the sky like antennae, and the earth shaking snort of the bombs and the whimper of shrapnel pieces when they come down to patter on the roof.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“the heart
slips backward,
remembering, remembering,
where the god had been
as he beat his furious wings.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
