Those little nimble musicians of the air, that warble forth their curious ditties, with which nature hath furnished them to the shame of art.
Izaak Walton
Not to wax nostalgic about the 1970’s, but back then people got upset when they saw injustice. They got tired of seeing our air, land and water polluted. They were shocked when the Cuyahoga River in Ohio was polluted so badly it caught fire. And on one ...
Senator John Kerry
A man who has both feet planted firmly in the air can be safely called a liberal as opposed to the conservative, who has both feet firmly planted in his mouth
Jacques Barzun
Journalism can never be silent: that is its greatest virtue and its greatest fault. It must speak, and speak immediately, while the echoes of wonder, the claims of triumph and the signs of horror are still in the air.
Henry Anatole Grunwald
There is no absurdity so obvious that it cannot be firmly planted in the human head if you only begin to impose it before the age of five, by constantly repeating it with an air of great solemnity
Arthur Schopenhauer
Sorrows gather around great souls as storms do around mountains; but, like them, they break the storm and purify the air of the plain beneath them.
Abyee Maracigan
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men`s hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies.
Erich Fromm
It was luxuries like air conditioning that brought down the Roman Empire. With air conditioning their windows were shut, they couldn`t hear the barbarians coming.
Garrison Keillor

Garrison Keillor
Poetry is the journal of the sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air. Poetry is a search for syllables to shoot at the barriers of the unknown and the unknowable. Poetry is a phantom script telling how rainbows are made and why they go away.
Carl Sandburg
Yesterday, December seventh, 1941, a date which will live in infamy, the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The mind, in proportion as it is cut off from free communication with nature, with revelation, with God, with itself, loses its life, just as the body droops when debarred from the air and the cheering light from heaven.
William Ellery Channing
[on "Transformers"] Well, it`s just, you know, listen, it`s like...I didn`t want to make the boxy characters, you know? Think about it, 30 feet in the air in the real world, just boxes, you know and it`d just look more fake, you know? And by adding more d...

I happen to live in Los Angeles and it is probably one of the most toxic environments on earth. People live here and they know that the air is poisonous. They know that children are affected by the air in Los Angeles. They say that growing up in Los Angel...

My inspiration, I`ve had many, again, starting with Julie Andrews at a young age. But, growing up, I sang Whitney Houston songs in talent shows. But, when I discovered Mariah Carey and "Vision Of Love", that was a breath of fresh air and I adored her from...

Most people in the film community don`t really understand what being politically active means. They think it is just doing interviews. I`m content that the Hollywood left thinks being a political activist means riding Air Force One and hanging out with th...

My lightsaber flew out of my hands. No one tells you the sabers have about 10 `D`batteries in them. They burn your hands... I tossed the saber in the air and it ended up hitting a technician in the head. [Twist Magazine]
Ewan McGregor
Singing really oxygenates your blood. You stretch your lungs and take in much more air into them than before. It`s really good for your health.
