Famous quotes containing the words loose and/or fill:
“but when lust
By unchaste looks, loose gestures, and foul talk,
But most by lewd and lavish act of sin,
Lets in defilement to the inward parts,
The soul grows clotted by contagion,
Imbodies, and imbrutes, till she quite loose
The divine property of her first being.”
—John Milton (16081674)
“I pity the men whose natural pleasures are burthens, and who fly from joy ... as if it was really an evil in itself.... Poor unfortunate creature that he is! as if the causes of anguish in the heart were not enowbut he must fill up the measure, with those of caprice; and not only walk in a vain shadow,but disquiet himself in vain too.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
