Put Off

Famous quotes containing the word put:

    He said “Next time can I bring my friend?”
    And I thought “Does he mean friend?”
    And I thought “Yes he does mean friend.”
    Which was quite bold in those days.
    It was the Dark Ages. Men and men.
    And they could still put you in prison for it.
    And did, dear.
    Alan Bennett (b. 1934)

    Young soul put off your flesh, and come
    With me into the quiet tomb,
    Our bed is lovely, dark, and sweet;
    The earth will swing us, as she goes,
    Beneath our coverlid of snows,
    Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)
