Steel String

Famous quotes containing the words steel and/or string:

    Through joy and blindness he shall know,
    Not caring much to know, that still
    Nor lead nor steel shall reach him,
    Julian Grenfell (1888–1915)

    As I came home through the woods with my string of fish, trailing my pole, it being now quite dark, I caught a glimpse of a woodchuck stealing across my path, and felt a strange thrill of savage delight, and was strongly tempted to seize and devour him raw; not that I was hungry then, except for that wildness which he represented.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
