Successful Drop Kick

Famous quotes containing the words successful, drop and/or kick:

    The scholar may be sure that he writes the tougher truth for the calluses on his palms. They give firmness to the sentence. Indeed, the mind never makes a great and successful effort, without a corresponding energy of the body.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The pipe, with solemn interposing puff,
    Makes half a sentence at a time enough;
    The dozing sages drop the drowsy strain,
    Then pause, and puff—and speak, and pause again.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    Last season’s fruit is eaten
    And the fullfed beast shall kick the empty pail.
    For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
    And next year’s words await another voice.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
