Famous quotes containing the words soviet, air and/or force:

    If the Soviet Union let another political party come into existence, they would still be a one-party state, because everybody would join the other party.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)

    More beautiful and soft than any moth
    With burring furred antennae feeling its huge path
    Through dusk, the air liner with shut-off engines
    Glides over suburbs
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)

    Temptation is an irresistible force at work on a movable body.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
