Peep

Famous quotes containing the word peep:

“Most souls, ‘tis true, but peep out once an age,
Dull sullen pris’ners in the body’s cage:
Dim lights of life, that burn a length of years,
Useless, unseen, as lamps in sepulchres;”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

“He took the paper, and I watched,
And saw him peep within;
At the first line he read, his face
Was all upon the grin.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

“Life is too short to waste
In critic peep or cynic bark,
Quarrel or reprimand:
‘Twill soon be dark;
Up, heed thine own aim, and
God speed the mark!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
