Put Off

Famous quotes containing the word put:

    “How strange or odd some’er I bear myself,
    As I perchance hereafter shall think meet
    To put an antic disposition on.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Skepticism is unbelief in cause and effect. A man does not see, that, as he eats, so he thinks: as he deals, so he is, and so he appears; he does not see that his son is the son of his thoughts and of his actions; that fortunes are not exceptions but fruits; that relation and connection are not somewhere and sometimes, but everywhere and always; no miscellany, no exemption, no anomaly,—but method, and an even web; and what comes out, that was put in.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
