Base Jumps

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or jumps:

“What if it tempt you toward the flood, my lord,
Or to the dreadful summit of the cliff
That beetles o’er his base into the sea,
And there assume some other horrible form
Which might deprive your sovereignty of reason,
And draw you into madness?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Stiff springy jumps down the snowfields
Head held back, forefeet out,
Balls tight in a tough hair sack”
