Swan Reach

Famous quotes containing the words swan and/or reach:

    And of the swan in death these dreamers tell
    of its last flight and how it falls, a plummet,
    pierced by the freezing bullet
    and how three feathers, loosened by the shot,
    descend like snow upon it.
    Patricia K. Page (b. 1916)

    The toughest thing about success is that you’ve got to keep on being a success. Talent is only a starting point in this business. You’ve got to keep on working that talent. Someday I’ll reach for it and it won’t be there.
    Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
