Famous quotes containing the word careful:
““So careful of the type?” but no.
From scarped cliff and quarried stone
She cries, “A thousand types are gone;
I care for nothing, all shall go.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“And the footman sat upon the dining-table
Holding the second housemaid on his knees
Who had always been so careful while her mistress lived.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“But, when to Sin our byast Nature leans,
The careful Devil is still at hand with means;
And providently Pimps for ill desires:
The Good Old Cause, reviv’d, a Plot requires,
Plots, true or false, are necessary things,
To raise up Common-wealths and ruine Kings.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
