Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or lines:
“The straight Hellespont between
The Sestos and Abydos of her breasts.”

“I struck the board, and cried, “No more.
I will abroad.”

My lines and life are free; free as the road,
Loose as the wind, as large as store.
Shall I be still in suit?”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
