Putting

Famous quotes containing the word putting:

“Even in my own writings I cannot always recover the meaning of my former ideas; I know not what I meant to say, and often get into a regular heat, correcting and putting a new sense into it, having lost the first and better one. I do nothing but come and go. My judgement does not always forge straight ahead; it strays and wanders.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

“I do not know the American gentleman, God forgive me for putting two such words together.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

“America I’m putting my queer shoulder to the wheel.”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
