Straight Pull

Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or pull:

    “He serveth the servant,
    The brave he loves amain;
    He kills the cripple and the sick,
    And straight begins again.
    For gods delight in gods,
    And thrust the weak aside;
    To him who scorns their charities,
    Their arms fly open wide.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
