Carry

Famous quotes containing the word carry:

    They have given us into the hand of new unhappy lords,
    Lords without anger and honour, who dare not carry their swords.
    They fight by shuffling papers; they have bright dead alien eyes;
    They look at our labour and laughter as a tired man looks at flies.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew,
    That one small head could carry all he knew.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

    I sit on a man’s back, choking him and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by all possible means—except by getting off his back.
    Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)
