Life Talons

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or talons:

    I am content to live it all again,
    And yet again, if it be life to pitch
    Into the frog-spawn of a blind man’s ditch.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    A motionless still balance in the air, then parting, talons loosing,
    Upward again on slow-firm pinions slanting, their separate diverse flight,
    She hers, he his, pursuing.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
