Air Branch

Famous quotes containing the words air and/or branch:

“The air was clear. He seemed in ultimate peace

Except that he had no eyes. Rigid and bright
Upon the forehead, furred
With a light frost, crouched an outrageous bird.”

You now but wisdom, exile? Stand and live,
The dove has brought an olive branch to eat.”
