High Tackle

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or tackle:

“The chief want, in every State that I have been into, was a high and earnest purpose in its inhabitants. This alone draws out “the great resources” of Nature, and at last taxes her beyond her resources; for man naturally dies out of her.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Play with your fancies: and in them behold
Upon the hempen tackle ship-boys climbing;
Hear the shrill whistle which doth order give
To sound confused; behold the threaden sails
Borne with th’ invisible and creeping wind.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
