Famous quotes containing the words chief and/or staff:
“But chief to heedless flies the window proves
A constant death; where gloomily retired,
The villain spider lives, cunning and fierce,
Mixture abhorred! Amid a mangled heap
Of carcases in eager watch he sits,
O’erlooking all his waving snares around.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
“Each one threw down his staff, and they became snakes; but Aaron’s staff swallowed up theirs.”
