Famous quotes containing the words flame and/or front:
“I would that we were, my beloved, white birds on the foam of the sea!
We tire of the flame of the meteor, before it can fade and flee;
And the flame of the blue star of twilight, hung low on the rim of the sky,
Has awaked in our hearts, my beloved, a sadness that may not die.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“For as she eats wisdom like the halves of a pear she puts one foot in front of the other. She climbs the dark wing.”
