Famous quotes containing the word cut:
“Come, gentle night, come, loving, black-browed night.
Give me my Romeo, and when I shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
