Famous quotes containing the words air and/or wing:

    She [Evelina] is a little angel!... Her face and person answer my most refined ideas of complete beauty.... She has the same gentleness in her manners, the same natural graces in her motions, that I formerly so much admired in her mother. Her character seems truly ingenuous and simple; and at the same time that nature has blessed her with an excellent understanding and great quickness of parts, she has a certain air of inexperience and innocency that is extremely interesting.
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)

    I could replace
    God for awhile, that old ring of candles,
    that owl’s wing brushing the dew
    off my grass hair.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
