Circling

Famous quotes containing the word circling:

    It has been proposed that the town should adopt for its coat of arms a field verdant, with the Concord circling nine times round.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I cannot beat off
    Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:
    Be a man my son by God.
    He turned again
    To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
    Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    We will not be put off the final goal
    We have it hidden in us to attain,
    Not though we have to seize the earth by the pole
    And, tired of aimless circling in one place,
    Steer straight off after something into space.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
