Famous quotes containing the words small and/or lineage:
“creamy iridescent coats of mail,
with small iridescent flies crawling on them.”

“I declare
Two lineages electrify the air,
That will like pennons from a mast
Fly over sleep and life and death
Till sun is powerless to decoy
A single seed above the earth:
Lineage of sorrow: lineage of joy....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
