Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    “Why need Christians be still intolerant and superstitious? The simple-minded sailors were unwilling to cast overboard Jonah at his own request.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “There may sometimes be ungenerous attempts to keep a young man down; and they will succeed too, if he allows his mind to be diverted from its true channel to brood over the attempted injury. Cast about, and see if this feeling has not injured every person you have ever known to fall into it.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “I will not cast away my physic but on those that are sick.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
