Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    we cast the vessel ashore
    On the Gulliby Isles where the Pooh-pooh smiles,
    And the Rumbletum bunders roar.
    Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    “what has cast such a shadow upon you” “The negro.”
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    indolence read as abnegation,
    slattern thought styled intuition,
    every lapse forgiven, our crime
    only to cast too bold a shadow
    or smash the mold straight off.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
