Cut

Famous quotes containing the word cut:

    Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
    Book Of Common Prayer, The. Burial of the Dead, “First Anthem,” (1662)

    a big picture of K. Marx with an axe,
    “Where I cut off one it will never grow again.”
    O Karl would it were true
    I’d put my saw to work for you
    & the wicked social tree would fall right down.
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    The whole cut impressed me as if it were a cave with its stalactites laid open to the light.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
