Heavy

Famous quotes containing the word heavy:

    Before the last went, heavy with dew,
    Back to the place from which she came
    Where the bird was before it flew,
    Where the flower was before it grew,
    Where bird and flower were one and the same.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    To rule is not so much a question of the heavy hand as the firm seat.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)

    One story recounts that a Tennessean, after a single day in the then almost impenetrable tangle of cypress, briars, and canebreaks, pestered by myriads of mosquitoes, and bogged in the heavy gumbo mud, declared: “Arkansas is not part of the world for which Jesus Christ died—I want none of it.”
    —Administration in the State of Arka, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
