Peak Direction

Famous quotes containing the words peak and/or direction:

    “Sleep shall neither night nor day
    Hang upon his penthouse lid;
    He shall live a man forbid;
    Weary sev’n-nights, nine times nine,
    Shall he dwindle, peak and pine;
    Though his bark cannot be lost,
    Yet it shall be tempest-tossed.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
