Flight Quote by Aleksis Kivi
““Muistuttipa heidän juoksunsa kuuta korkeuden sininiitulla. Ei väisty hän syrjään hattaran edestä, joka tahtoo sulkea hänen tiensä, vaan huoletonna hän retkeilee sen läpitse, ja kirkkaampana kuin ennen astuu hän jälleen sen kautta ulos. / Their flight was like the moon's course through the blue fields of the sky. She does not turn aside for a flimsy cloud that tries to block her path, but sails through it serenely and emerges on the other side brighter than before.””

![“Tell them you came, and saw, and looked into my eyes and saw the shadow of the guard receding. Thoughts in time and out of season, the hitchinker stood by the side of the road and levelled his thumb in the calm calculus of reason. [...] Why does my mind circle around you? Why do planets wonder…” quote by Jim Morrison](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/9ae/jim-morrison-1692_bird_tell-them-you-came-and-saw-and-looked-in_18280.jpg)
