Famous quotes containing the word heavily:
“There are some things which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are the very simplest things and because it takes a mans life to know them the little new that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave.”
—Ernest Hemingway (18991961)
“And down in fathoms many went the captain and the crew;
Down went the ownersgreedy men whom hope of gain
allured:
Oh, dry the starting tear, for they were heavily insured.”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (18361911)
“Progress everywhere today does seem to come so very heavily disguised as Chaos.”
—Joyce Grenfell (19101979)
