Famous quotes containing the word string:

    “... looped with the creep of varying light,
    Monkey-brown, fish-grey, a string of infected circles
    Loitering like bullies, about to coagulate....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The most perfect expression of human behavior is a string quartet.”
    —Jeffrey Tate (b. 1943)

    “As I came home through the woods with my string of fish, trailing my pole, it being now quite dark, I caught a glimpse of a woodchuck stealing across my path, and felt a strange thrill of savage delight, and was strongly tempted to seize and devour him raw; not that I was hungry then, except for that wildness which he represented.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
