Swinging Gates

Famous quotes containing the words swinging and/or gates:

    Action is at bottom a swinging and flailing of the arms to regain one’s balance and keep afloat.

    Now, from the Gates of Hercules we flood
    Westward, westward till the barbarous brine
    Whelms us to the tired land where tasseling corn,
    Fat beans, grapes sweeter than muscadine
    Rot on the vine: in that land were we born.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
