Deny Flight

Famous quotes containing the words deny and/or flight:

“No place of grace for those who avoid the face
No time to rejoice for those who walk among noise and deny the voice”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“No Raven’s wing can stretch the flight so far
As the torn bandrols of Napoleon’s war.
Choose then your climate, fix your best abode,
He’ll make you deserts and he’ll bring you blood.
How could you fear a dearth? have not mankind,
Tho slain by millions, millions left behind?
Has not conscription still the power to weild
Her annual faulchion o’er the human field?
A faithful harvester!”
—Joel Barlow (1754–1812)
