Famous quotes containing the word cast:
“But first Elpenor came, our friend Elpenor,
Unburied, cast on the wide earth,
Limbs that we left in the house of Circe,
Unwept, unwrapped in sepulchre, since toils urged other.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“Hell, covering all with its gloomy vapors, has cast shadows on even the holiest eyes.”
