Stephen Sondheim quote: "If I cannot fly, let me sing."
If I cannot fly, let me sing. Stephen Sondheim
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire. Rumi
Do you not weep? Other sins only speak, murder shreaks out: The element of water moistens the earth, But blood flies upwards and bedews the heavens. John Webster
When i was lying in the V.A. hospital with a big hole blown through the middle of my life, i started having these dreams of flying. I was free. But sooner or later, you always have to wake up. James Cameron
...But what has any of the three, or any mixture of the three, to do with that unnameable something, desire for which pierces us like a rapier at the smell of a bonfire, the sound of wild ducks flying overhead, the title of The Well at the World's End, the opening lines of Kubla Khan, the morning cobwebs in late summer, or the noise of falling waves? C. S. Lewis
Her ivory hands on the ivory keys. Strayed in a fitful fantasy, Like the silver gleam when the poplar trees. Rustle their pale leaves listlessly, Or the drifting foam of a restless sea. When the waves show their teeth in the flying breeze. Oscar Wilde

She said she knew she was able to fly because when she came down she always had dust on her fingers from touching the light bulbs. J. D. Salinger
Horror and doubt distract. His troubled thoughts and from the bottom stir. The Hell within him, for within him Hell. He brings and round about him, nor from Hell. One step no more than from himself can fly. By change of place. John Milton
There is great literature about imprisonment, . . . about the foot soldier, . . . about the sea -- but not one great work about flying. John Sayles
Tom Robbins quote: "The only authority I respect is the one that causes..."
The only authority I respect is the one that causes butterflies to fly south in fall and north in springtime. Tom Robbins
E. O. Wilson quote: "Let us see how high we can fly before the sun melts the wax in..."
Let us see how high we can fly before the sun melts the wax in our wings. E. O. Wilson
Somewhere in the gray wood by the river is the huntsman and in the brooming corn and in the castellated press of cities. His work lies all wheres and his hounds tire not. I have seen them in a dream, slaverous and wild and their eyes crazed with ravening for souls in this world. Fly them. Cormac McCarthy
Terry Prachett quote: "One day a tortoise will learn how to fly."
One day a tortoise will learn how to fly. Terry Prachett
