Leap

Famous quotes containing the word leap:

    This, however, is my teaching: whoever would one day learn to fly must first learn to stand and to walk and to run and to leap and to climb and to dance:Myou cannot fly into flying!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
    The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
    O I’ll leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
    See, see, where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament.
    One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    So, she will never leap up that way again, with the yellow flash of
    a mountain lion’s long shoot!
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
