Leap

Famous quotes containing the word leap:

    O thou day o’ th’ world,
    Chain mine armed neck, leap thou, attire and all,
    Through proof of harness to my heart, and there
    Ride on the pants triumphing!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I—love’s skein upon the ground,
    My body in the tomb—
    Shall leap into the light lost
    In my mother’s womb.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
    The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
    O I’ll leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
    See, see, where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament.
    One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
