Dashed

Famous quotes containing the word dashed:

“The river, right, tumbled into a cove;
But the map dashed the road along the stream
And we dotted man’s fishiest enthymeme
With jellied feet upon understanding love
Of what eyes see not, that nourishes the will:
We were fishers, weren’t we?”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“The breaking waves dashed high
On a stern and rock-bound coast,”
—Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)

“I have given suck, and know
How tender ‘tis to love the babe that milks me;
I would, while it was smiling in my face,
Have plucked my nipple from his boneless gums
And dashed the brains out, had I so sworn
As you have done to this.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
