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)

    the pull of gravity, which is not simple
    which carries the feathered grass a long way down the upbreathing
    air.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
