Famous quotes containing the words double and/or track:

    “Go; and if that word have not quite killed thee,
    Ease me with death by bidding me got too.
    Oh, if it have, let my word work on me,
    And a just office on a murderer do.
    Except it be too late to kill me so,
    Being double dead: going, and bidding go.”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    “The weary sun hath made a golden set,
    And by the bright track of his fiery car
    Gives token of a goodly day tomorrow.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
