Wing Sweep

Famous quotes containing the words wing and/or sweep:

    But he her fears to cease
    Sent down the meek-eyed Peace;
    She, crowned with olive green, came softly sliding
    Down through the turning sphere,
    His ready harbinger,
    With turtle wing the amorous clouds dividing,
    And waving wide her myrtle wand,
    She strikes a universal peace through sea and land.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Generalizations, like brooms, ought not to stand in a corner forever; they ought to sweep as a matter of course.
    John Lukacs (b.1924)
