Long Range Flight

Famous quotes containing the words long, range and/or flight:

    And the truth becomes a hole, something one has always known,
    A heaviness in the trees, and no one can say
    Where it comes from, or how long it will stay
    A randomness, a darkness of one’s own.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    [F]or as Socrates says that a wise man is a citizen of the world, so I thought that a wise woman was equally at liberty to range through every station or degree of men, to fix her choice wherever she pleased.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    Fear of error which everything recalls to me at every moment of the flight of my ideas, this mania for control, makes men prefer reason’s imagination to the imagination of the senses. And yet it is always the imagination alone which is at work.
    Louis Aragon (1897–1982)
