Copy

Famous quotes containing the word copy:

    Learn hence for ancient rules a just esteem;
    To copy Nature is to copy them.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Canst thou copy in verse one chime
    Of the wood-bell’s peal and cry,
    Write in a book the morning’s prime,
    Or match with words the tender sky?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The men are magnificent—the young men tall, well formed, and admirably dressed; the old men positively beautiful, with their fresh complexions, white hair, and admirable neatness. Nothing struck me more than this, and we might copy it to advantage here. As an Englishman grows older he becomes more and more careful in his dress.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
