Midnight Flyer

Famous quotes containing the words midnight and/or flyer:

    “I sprang to the stirrup, and Joris and he;
    I galloped, Dirck galloped, we galloped all three;
    “Good speed!” cried the watch as the gate-bolts undrew,
    “Speed!” echoed the wall to us galloping through.
    Behind shut the postern, the lights sank to rest,
    And into the midnight we galloped abreast.”
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    “How do you expect to learn to dance when you have not even learned to walk! And above the dancer is still the flyer and his bliss.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
