Narrow

Famous quotes containing the word narrow:

    “All day long from mid-day
    We have talked in the one place,
    All day long from shadowless noon
    We have gone round and round
    In the narrow theme of love
    Like an old horse in a pound.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Anyone who has passed though the regular gradations of a classical education, and is not made a fool by it, may consider himself as having had a very narrow escape.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    Highbury bore me. Richmond and Kew
    Undid me. By Richmond I raised my knees
    Supine on the floor of a narrow canoe.”

    “My feet are at Moorgate, and my heart
    Under my feet.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
