Famous quotes containing the word wing:

    “I come to one bush of berries so ripe it is a bush of flies,
    Hanging their bluegreen bellies and their wing panes in a Chinese
    screen.
    The honey-feast of the berries has stunned them; they believe in
    heaven.”
    —Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
