Careful

Famous quotes containing the word careful:

    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)

    O Death, rock me asleep,
    Bring me to quiet rest,
    Let pass my weary guiltless ghost
    Out of my careful breast.
    George Boleyn (d. 1536)

    The past is ignorant of the present. Be careful in taking its advice.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
