Fixed

Famous quotes containing the word fixed:

    The word “obligation” is very seldom in my thoughts, and consequently very seldom is it uttered by my tongue. For I am satisfied that whoever hath the word “obligation” continually in his mouth hath the love of tyranny steadily fixed in his heart.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    The body is but a pair of pincers set over a bellows and a stewpan and the whole fixed upon stilts.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    The firelight of a long, blind, dreaming story
    Lingers upon your lips; and I have seen
    Firm, fixed forever in your closing eyes,
    The Corn King beckoning to his Spring Queen.
    Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)
