Famous quotes containing the word slip:

    I see slip to the curb the long machines
    Out of whose warm and windowed rooms pirouette
    Shellacked with silk and light
    The hard legs of our women.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    You must have been warned against letting the golden hours slip by. Yes, but some of them are golden only because we let them slip.
    —J.M. (James Matthew)

    All generous minds have a horror of what are commonly called “facts.” They are the brute beasts of the intellectual domain. Who does not know fellows that always have an ill-conditioned fact or two that they lead after them into decent company like so many bull-dogs, ready to let them slip at every ingenious suggestion, or convenient generalization, or pleasant fancy? I allow no “facts” at this table.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
