Fly Halves

Famous quotes containing the words fly and/or halves:

    true pleasure
    Lives in measure,
    Which if men forsake,
    Blinded they into folly run and grief for pleasure take.
    —Unknown. Love Winged My Hopes and Taught Me How to Fly (l. 3–6)

    And plenitude of plan shall not suffice
    Nor grief nor love shall be enough alone
    To ratify my little halves who bear
    Across an autumn freezing everywhere.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
