Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or wing:
“I, who travel most often for my pleasure, do not direct myself so badly. If it looks ugly on the right, I take the left; if I find myself unfit to ride my horse, I stop.... Have I left something unseen behind me? I go back; it is still on my road. I trace no fixed line, either straight or crooked.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“I could replace
God for awhile, that old ring of candles,
that owl’s wing brushing the dew
off my grass hair.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
