Fit

Famous quotes containing the word fit:

    Let’s kill him boldly, but not wrathfully;
    Let’s carve him as a dish fit for the gods,
    Not hew him as a carcase fit for hounds.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It was fit that I should live on rice, mainly, who loved so well the philosophy of India.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Germany is a queer country: one can’t regard it dispassionately. I alternate between hating it thoroughly, stick, stock and stone, and yearning over it fit to break my heart. I can’t help feeling it a young and adorable country—adolescent—with the faults of adolescence.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
