Dice Thrown

Famous quotes containing the words dice and/or thrown:

    Often beneath the wave, wide from this ledge
    The dice of drowned men’s bones he saw bequeath
    An embassy.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    ... it is probable that in a fit of generosity the men of the United States would have enfranchised its women en masse; and the government now staggering under the ballots of ignorant, irresponsible men, must have gone down under the additional burden of the votes which would have been thrown upon it, by millions of ignorant, irresponsible women.
    Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)
