Famous quotes containing the words wide and/or web:

“There was no corn—in the wide market-place
All loathliest things, even human flesh, was sold;
They weighed it in small scales—and many a face
Was fixt in eager horror then; his gold
The miser brought; the tender maid, grown bold
Through hunger, bared her scornèd charms in vain.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill
together.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
