Famous quotes containing the words general, strike and/or called:
“Then comes my fit again. I had else been perfect,
Whole as the marble, founded as the rock,
As broad and general as the casing air.
But now I am cabined, cribbed, confined, bound in
To saucy doubts and fears.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“In love, it is the weak who strike and the strong who caress.”
—José Bergamín (18951983)
“Making a logging-road in the Maine woods is called swamping it, and they who do the work are called swampers. I now perceived the fitness of the term. This was the most perfectly swamped of all the roads I ever saw. Nature must have coöperated with art here.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
