Leap

Famous quotes containing the word leap:

“Sleep, beloved, such a sleep
As did that wild Tristram know
When, the potion’s work being done,
Roe could run or doe could leap
Under oak and beechen bough,
Roe could leap or doe could run....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

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)

“That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”
—Neil Armstrong (b. 1930)
