Famous quotes containing the words flight, surgeon and/or wings:

    When we are high and airy hundreds say
    That if we hold that flight they’ll leave the place,
    While those same hundreds mock another day
    Because we have made our art of common things ...

    The surgeon doesn’t operate without first taking off the patient’s clothes. Nor do we with the mind.
