Leap

Famous quotes containing the word leap:

    The guided missiles,
    The black-and-white angels follow each quirk and jink of
    The evasive sheep, play grandmother’s-steps behind them,
    Freeze to the ground, or leap to head off a straggler
    Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    The far-off clinching and mating of arches, the leap and thrust of the stone, carrying a great roof overhead, awed and silenced her.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    A cheese may disappoint. It may be dull, it may be naive, it may be oversophisticated. Yet it remains cheese, milk’s leap toward immortality.
    Clifton Fadiman (b. 1904)
