Cut

Famous quotes containing the word cut:

    Then cut down the trees when lumber grown,
    And there’s your pristine earth all freed
    From lovely blooming but wasteful weed
    And ready again for the grass to own.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Those friends have left.
    Only stumps remain
    in the thickets
    and we’ve grown old, besides.
    Love’s been cut off
    at the roots.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    In the history of the United States, there is no continuity at all. You can cut through it anywhere and nothing on this side of the cut has anything to do with anything on the other side.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
