Air Column

Famous quotes containing the words air and/or column:

    “Then, that no region of the universe
    Should remain void of life, the floor of heaven
    Was peopled with the stars and godlike forms,
    The seas became the abode of glittering fish.
    Earth took the beasts and mobile air the birds.
    A holier animal was wanting.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “I got it: Man Without Head Kills Rich Jeweler. What an eight- column spread that’d be on the front page. Why that’s the greatest story since Lindbergh flew to Paris. Oh boy, if only it was true.”
    —P. J. Wolfson, John L. Balderston (1899–1954)
