Creep

Famous quotes containing the word creep:

    By right or wrong,
    Lands and goods go to the strong.
    Property will brutely draw
    Still to the proprietor;
    Silver to silver creep and wind,
    And kind to kind.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    She sings of a sword so white,
    so luminous, that its own light
    alone must slay;
    she sings of a sword, a sword, a sword,
    and I creep away.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    The awful shadow of some unseen Power
    Floats though unseen among us, visiting
    This various world with as inconstant wing
    As summer winds that creep from flower to flower;
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
