Famous quotes containing the words cripple and/or creek:

    “The cripple tardy-gaited night,
    Who like a foul and ugly witch doth limp
    So tediously away.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “It might be seen by what tenure men held the earth. The smallest stream is mediterranean sea, a smaller ocean creek within the land, where men may steer by their farm bounds and cottage lights. For my own part, but for the geographers, I should hardly have known how large a portion of our globe is water, my life has chiefly passed within so deep a cove. Yet I have sometimes ventured as far as to the mouth of my Snug Harbor.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
