Put Off

Famous quotes containing the word put:

    Do not put yourself forward in the king’s presence or stand in the place of the great; for it is better to be told, “Come up here,” than to be put lower in the presence of a noble.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 25:6-7.

    She blinks and croaks, like a toad or a Norn, in the horrible light,
    And rattles her crutch, which may put forth a small bloom, perhaps
    white.
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)
