Deadly

Famous quotes containing the word deadly:

    What is this love that more than all the cursed deadly or any other of its great movers so moves the soul and soul what is this soul that more than by any of its great movers is by love so moved?
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    Give us a good cheap twenty-four-hour day,
    No part of which we’d have to waste, I say,
    And who knows where we can’t get! Wasting time
    In sleep or slowness is the deadly crime.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Lord, crack their teeth! Lord, crush these lions’ jaws!
    So let them sink as water in the sand;
    When deadly bow their aiming fury draws,
    Shiver the shaft ere past the shooter’s hand.
    So make them melt as the dishoused snail
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm LVIII (Paraphrased by the Countess of Pembroke)
