Famous quotes containing the words fly and/or strike:
“I unknit.
Words fly out of place
and I, long into the desert,

and bow my head to that meadow
the breast, the melon in it....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“If magistrates had true justice, and if physicians had the true art of healing, they would have no occasion for square caps; the majesty of these sciences would of itself be venerable enough. But having only imaginary knowledge, they must employ those silly tools that strike the imagination with which they have to deal; and thereby, in fact, they inspire respect.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
