Famous quotes containing the words air, force and/or special:
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old

Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”

—Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)
“There is special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be

all.”
