Famous quotes containing the words catch and/or phrases:

    “Bless you, of course you’re keeping me from work,
    But the thing of it is, I need to be kept.
    There’s work enough to do there’s always that;
    But behind’s behind. The worst that you can do
    Is set me back a little more behind.
    I shan’t catch up in this world, anyway.
    I’d rather you’d not go unless you must.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “And so I will take back up my poor life, so plain and so tranquil, where phrases are adventures and the only flowers I gather are metaphors.”
    —Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
