Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    “However, our fates at least are social. Our courses do not diverge; but as the web of destiny is woven it is fulled, and we are cast more and more into the centre. Men naturally, though feebly, seek this alliance, and their actions faintly foretell it.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Hell, covering all with its gloomy vapors, has cast shadows on even the holiest eyes.”
    —Jean Racine (1639–1699)

    “Such is the remorseless progression of human society, shedding lives and souls as it goes on its way. It is an ocean into which men sink who have been cast out by the law and consigned, with help most cruelly withheld, to moral death. The sea is the pitiless social darkness into which the penal system casts those it has condemned, an unfathomable waste of misery. The human soul, lost in those depths, may become a corpse. Who shall revive it?”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
