Tight Turns

Famous quotes containing the words tight and/or turns:

“Stiff springy jumps down the snowfields
Head held back, forefeet out,
Balls tight in a tough hair sack”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

“Everything here below beneath the sun is subject to continual change; and perhaps there is nothing which can be called more inconstant than opinion, which turns round in an everlasting circle like the wheel of fortune. He who reaps praise today is overwhelmed with biting censure tomorrow; today we trample under foot the man who tomorrow will be raised far above us.”
—E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
