Catch

Famous quotes containing the word catch:

    I’ve known ere now an interfering branch
    Of alder catch my lifted ax behind me.
    But that was in the woods, to hold my hand
    From striking at another alder’s roots,
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    If you address a ghost as “Thing!”
    Or strike him with a hatchet,
    He is permitted by the King
    To drop all formal parleying—
    And then you’re sure to catch it!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    If I can catch him once upon the hip,
    I will feed fat the ancient grudge I bear him.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
