Fit

Famous quotes containing the word fit:

“It is bad enough that our geniuses cannot do anything useful, but it is worse that no man is fit for society who has fine traits. He is admired at a distance, but he cannot come near without appearing a cripple.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“To look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to restore it, and to render it the more fit for its prime function of looking forward.”

“This is mere madness,
And thus a while the fit will work on him.
Anon, as patient as the female dove
When that her golden couplets are disclosed,
His silence will sit drooping.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
