Famous quotes containing the words scales and, scales and/or keys:

    “In what camera do you taste
    Poison, in what darkness set
    Glittering scales and point
    The tipping tongue?”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “As deaths have accumulated I have begun to think of life and death as a set of balance scales. When one is young, the scale is heavily tipped toward the living. With the first death, the first consciousness of death, the counter scale begins to fall. Death by death, the scales shift weight until what was unthinkable becomes merely a matter of gravity and the fall into death becomes an easy step.”
    —Alison Hawthorne Deming (b. 1946)

    “McCoy: That shark’s been following us ever since the surgeon died, waiting for the burial. Couldn’t I have a musket to shoot it, sir?
    Fletcher Christian: Take the deck, McCoy. I’ll get the keys to the arms chest.
    McCoy: Get two muskets, sir. I’d like to shoot that shark on board.”
    —Talbot Jennings (1896–1985)
