Pitch Material

Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or material:

    Though I have locked my gate on them
    I pity all the young,
    I know what devil’s trade they learn
    From those they live among,
    Their drink, their pitch and toss by day,
    Their robbery by night....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Our life on earth is, and ought to be, material and carnal. But we have not yet learned to manage our materialism and carnality properly; they are still entangled with the desire for ownership.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
