Famous quotes containing the word cast:
“You have overcome yourself: but why do you show yourself to me only as the one overcome? I want to see the victor: cast roses into the abyss and say, “Here is my thanks to the monster, because it didn’t know how to swallow me!””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted
within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the
health of my countenance, and my God.”
—Bible: Hebrew Psalm XLII (l. XLII, 11)
““what has cast such a shadow upon you” “The negro.””
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
