Bow Fitted

Famous quotes containing the words bow and/or fitted:

“Who has seen the wind? Neither you nor I:
But when the trees bow down their heads, The wind is passing by.”

“Knowledge, a rude unprofitable mass,
The mere materials with which wisdom builds,
Till smoothed and squared and fitted to its place,
Does but encumber whom it seems to enrich.
Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much;
Wisdom is humble that he knows no more.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
