Famous quotes containing the words air and/or striking:
“The air deals blows: surely too hard, too often?

Dead leaves desert in thousands, outwards, upwards,
Numerous as birds; but the birds fly away....”

“No place affords a more striking conviction of the vanity of human hopes than a public library.”
