Natural Bridge State

Famous quotes containing the words natural, bridge and/or state:

    Of all natural forces, vitality is the incommunicable one.... Vitality never “takes.” You have it or you haven’t it, like health or brown eyes or a baritone voice.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    I see four nuns
    who sit like a bridge club,
    their faces poked out
    from under their habits,
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Wooing, wedding, and repenting, is as a Scotch jig, a measure, and a cinquepace; the first suit is hot and hasty, like a Scotch jig, and full as fantastical; the wedding, mannerly-modest, as a measure, full of state and ancientry; and then comes repentance and, with his bad legs, falls into the cinquepace faster and faster, till he sink into his grave.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
