Famous quotes containing the words dive and/or push:
“Go! dive into the Southern Sea, and when
Th’ast found, to trouble the nice sight of men,
A swelling pearl, and such whose single worth
Boasts all the wonders which the seas bring forth,
Give it Endymion’s love, whose ev’ry tear
Would more enrich the skilful jeweller.”
—Sir William Davenant (1606–1668)
“Our enemies have beat us to the pit.
It is more worthy to leap in ourselves
Than tarry till they push us.”
