Adventure Boxed Set

Famous quotes containing the words adventure, boxed and/or set:

    And yet a little tumult, now and then, is an agreeable quickener of sensation; such as a revolution, a battle, or an adventure of any lively description.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    We then lived roses; I had fooled despair
    And boxed him up and flogged his retinue,
    Made strong by cheeks and lips! I sucked in dew,
    And dragged the world, a weakling, by the hair.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Ye ugly, creepin, blastit wonner,
    Detested, shunn’d by saunt an’ sinner,
    How dare ye set your fit upon her,
    Sae fine a lady!
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
