Big Wings

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or wings:

“Everything our children hear, see, and feel is recorded onto a cassette. Guess who is the big star in their movie? You are. What you say and, more important, what you do, is recorded there for them to replay over and over again. We all have videocassettes. Adults just have larger libraries of tapes available.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)

“In the wings the tenor hungers
For the heroine’s convulsive kiss, and Faust
Moves forward, no longer young, reappearing
And reappearing for the last time. The opera
Faust would no longer need its phantom.
On the bare, sunlit stage the hungers could begin.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
