Strike Wing

Famous quotes containing the words strike and/or wing:

    It would strike me as ridiculous to want to doubt the existence of Napoleon; but if someone doubted the existence of the earth 150 years ago, perhaps I should be more willing to listen, for now he is doubting our whole system of evidence.
    Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.
