Famous quotes containing the words threat and/or level:

    “Probably the only place where a man can feel really secure is in a maximum security prison, except for the imminent threat of release.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “To Time it never seems that he is brave
    To set himself against the peaks of snow
    To lay them level with the running wave,
    Nor is he overjoyed when they lie low,
    But only grave, contemplative and grave.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
