Lays Waste

Famous quotes containing the words lays and/or waste:

    That’s the trouble with directors. Always biting the hand that lays the golden egg.
    Samuel Goldwyn (1882–1974)

    Cruelty is a mystery, and the waste of pain. But if we describe a word to compass these things, a world that is a long, brute game, then we bump against another mystery: the inrush of power and delight, the canary that sings on the skull.
    Annie Dillard (b. 1945)
