Famous quotes containing the word brothers:
“O sinewy silver biplane, nudging the wind’s withers!
There, from Kill Devils Hill at Kitty Hawk
Two brothers in their twinship left the dune;
Warping the gale, the Wright wind wrestlers veered
Capeward, then blading the wind’s flank, banked and spun.”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
