Famous quotes containing the word utmost:

“For this present, hard
Is the fortune of the bard,
Born out of time;
All his accomplishment,
From Nature’s utmost treasure spent,
Booteth not him.”

Even to the utmost grain.”

I dare not beg a smile,
Lest having that, or this,
I might grow proud the while.

No, no, the utmost share
Of my desire shall be
Only to kiss that air
That lately kissed thee.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
