Main Shoot

Famous quotes containing the words main and/or shoot:

“Whoever considers morality the main objective of human existence, seems to me like a person who defines the purpose of a clock as not going wrong. The first objective for a clock, is, however, that it does run; not going wrong is an additional regulative function. If not a watch’s greatest accomplishment were not going wrong, unwound watches might be the best.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“Nothing is so beautiful as Spring—
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
