Fly Eggs

Famous quotes containing the words fly and/or eggs:

“The day of fire is coming, the thrush
will fly ablaze like a little sky rocket....”

“Nothing is so beautiful as spring—
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
The ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
