Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    I say that male and female are cast in the same mold; except for education and habits, the difference is not great.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    We cast a shadow on something wherever we stand.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    indolence read as abnegation,
    slattern thought styled intuition,
    every lapse forgiven, our crime
    only to cast too bold a shadow
    or smash the mold straight off.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
