Strain Due Applied

Famous quotes containing the words strain, due and/or applied:

    And but for fancies, which aver
    That all thy motions gently pass
    Athwart a plane of molten glass,
    I scarce could brook the strain and stir

    Olivia. There lies your way, due west.
    Viola. Then westward ho!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ... in all cases of monstrosity at birth anaesthetics should be applied by doctors publicly appointed for that purpose... Every successive year would see fewer of the unfit born, and finally none. But, it may be urged, this is legalized infanticide. Assuredly it is; and it is urgently needed.
    Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
