Famous quotes containing the word leap:

    Men know no medium: They will either, spaniel-like, fawn at your feet, or be ready to leap into your lap.

    Iambics march from short to long;—
    With a leap and a bound the swift Anapaests throng;
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Marriage and deathless friendship, both should be inviolable and sacred: two great creative passions, separate, apart, but complementary: the one pivotal, the other adventurous: the one, marriage, the centre of human life; and the other, the leap ahead.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
