High Thrust

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or thrust:

    “Come Sleep! Oh Sleep, the certain knot of peace,
    The baiting-place of wit, the balm of woe,
    The poor man’s wealth, the prisoner’s release,
    Th’indifferent judge between the high and low.”
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    “A man renowned for repartee
    Will seldom scruple to make free
    With friendship’s finest feeling,
    Will thrust a dagger at your breast,
    And say he wounded you in jest,
    By way of balm for healing.”
    —William Cowper (1731–1800)
