Dancing a ring-around in glee
From furrow to furrow, while overhead

In silvery arches spanning the air,

For the winds of May!

We walk through another part of the building. While we wait for an elevator, Dr. Kenyon unfolds a dinner-size napkin and holds it up in the air in front of his forehead.

In colder climates, our noses would grow narrower and longer to more efficiently heat up air before it entered our lungs; our skin would grow lighter to take in more sunshine for production of vitamin D.

Along the way, the larynx would descend in the throat to accommodate another adaptation: vocal communication. — James Nestor
Brazil does not have direct access to the rivers of the Rio de la Plata region. The River Plate itself empties into the Atlantic in Argentina, meaning that for centuries traders have moved their goods down to Buenos Aires rather than carry them up and down the Grand Escarpment to get to Brazil’s underdeveloped ports. Brazil’s seven largest ports combined can handle fewer goods per year than the single port of New Orleans. Therefore, Brazil lacks the volume of trade it would like and most of its goods are moved along its inadequate roads rather than by river, thus increasing costs. Brazil will require a herculean effort to overcome its geographical disadvantages. — Tim Marshall
In my home state of Delaware, we've done our homework and worked hard and, as a result, we've made great strides in cleaning up our own air pollution.

The best way to defend the bombers is to catch the enemy before it his in position to attack. Catch them when they are taking off, or when they are climbing, or when they are forming up.

Lying in a featherbed will bring you no fame, nor staying beneath the quilt, and he who uses up his life without achieving fame leaves no more vestige of himself on Earth than smoke in the air or foam upon the water. — Dante Alighieri
The power of resistance is to set an example: not necessarily to change the person with whom you disagree, but to empower the one who is watching and whose growth is not yet completed, whose path is not at all clear, whose direction is still very much up in the proverbial air. — Tim Wise
Where the world comes in my way - and it comes in my way everywhere - I consume it to quiet the hunger of my egoism.

Our work on light bulbs wasn't an arbitrary mandate. We didn't just pick a standard out of the air, or look for a catchy sounding standard like 25 by 2025 not based in science or feasibility. Instead, we worked with both industry and environmental groups to come up with a standard that made sense and was doable. — Fred Upton
It was a morning in early summer. A silver haze shimmered and trembled over the lime trees. The air was laden with their fragrance. The temperature was like a caress.

I decided I wasn't going to come down. I was going to fly. I was going to stay up in the air forever. — Jesse Owens

I mean, what kind of sportsman are you? What kind of man are you? — Marat Safin
The second means of attraction which He used is Emptiness, as we see when we place one end of a hollow pipe in water, and draw up it by suction; the water runs up the stem to the mouth, because the emptiness of the pipe, from which the air has been drawn, draws the water to itself. — Meister Eckhart
We wove a web in childhood, A web of sunny air; We dug a spring in infancy Of water pure and fair; We sowed in youth a mustard seed, We cut an almond rod; We are now grown up to riper age Are they withered in the sod? — Charlotte Bronte
