Cutting Torch

Famous quotes containing the words cutting and/or torch:

“should some limb of the devil
Destroy the view by cutting down an ash
That shades the road, or setting up a cottage
Planned in a government office, shorten his life,
Manacle his soul upon the Red Sea bottom.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Patriotism. Combustible rubbish ready to the torch of any one ambitious to illuminate his name.”
