Pursued

Famous quotes containing the word pursued:

“When Wilson got upon his legs in those days he seems to have gone into a sort of trance, with all the peculiar illusions and delusions that belong to a pedagogue gone mashugga. He heard words giving three cheers; he saw them race across a blackboard like Mexicans pursued by the Polizei; he felt them rush up and kiss him.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)

“Small habits, well pursued betimes, May reach the dignity of crimes.”
—Hannah More (1745–1833)
