Air Force Files

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

    “Spread outward. Crack the round dome. Break through.
    Have liberty not as the air within a grave
    Or down a well. Breathe freedom, oh, my native,
    In the space of horizons that neither love nor hate.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “The body, what is it, Father, but a sign
    To love the force that grows us, to give back
    What in Thy palm is senselessness and mud?”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    “But some who this blithe mood present,
    As on in lightsome files they fare,
    Shall die experienced ere three days be spent—
    Perish, enlightened by the vollied glare;
    Or shame survive, and, like to adamant,
    Thy after shock, Manassas, share.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
