Tear

Famous quotes containing the word tear:

    I am the sanest man who ever lived. But I will not be tortured. I tear torture out of myself by torturing you.
    David Boehm, and Louis Friedlander. Dr. Richard Vollin (Bela Lugosi)

    They will tell you tough stories of sharks all over the Cape, which I do not presume to doubt utterly,—how they will sometimes upset a boat, or tear it in pieces, to get at the man in it. I can easily believe in the undertow, but I have no doubt that one shark in a dozen years is enough to keep up the reputation of a beach a hundred miles long.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    She’s loose! She’ll tear the roof off!
    —Mark Hanna. Nathan Hertz. Nurse (Eileen Stevens)
