Leap

Famous quotes containing the word leap:

    I cannot tell how many times we had to walk on account of falls or rapids. We were expecting all the while that the river would take a final leap and get to smooth water, but there was no improvement this forenoon.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Men know no medium: They will either, spaniel-like, fawn at your feet, or be ready to leap into your lap.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    This, however, is my teaching: whoever would one day learn to fly must first learn to stand and to walk and to run and to leap and to climb and to dance:Myou cannot fly into flying!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
