Dull Knife

Famous quotes containing the words dull and/or knife:

    “How charming is divine philosophy!
    Not harsh and crabbèd, as dull fools suppose,

    And a perpetual feast of nectared sweets,
    Where no crude surfeit reigns.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    Till Sir John fell to the ground,
    And there was a knife in Sir Willie’s pouch,
    Gied him a deadlie wound.”
