Catch

Famous quotes containing the word catch:

    The play’s the thing
    Wherein I’ll catch the conscience of the King.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I don’t like your miserable lonely single “front name.” It is so limited, so meagre; it has no versatility; it is weighted down with the sense of responsibility; it is worn threadbare with much use; it is as bad as having only one jacket and one hat; it is like having only one relation, one blood relation, in the world. Never set a child afloat on the flat sea of life with only one sail to catch the wind.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    I’d like to catch him—uh—see him sometime when no one’s around.
    —William Beaudine. The Great McGonigle (W.C. Fields)
