Fly Eggs

Famous quotes containing the words fly and/or eggs:

    Our words have wings, but fly not where we would.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    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)
