Famous quotes containing the words double and/or handed:
“The Cossack eats Poland,
Like stolen fruit;
Her last noble is ruined,
Her last poet mute:
Straight, into double band
The victors divide;
Half for freedom strike and stand;—
The astonished Muse finds thousands at her side.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“sailing
In sunlight smiling under their goggles swapping batons back and
forth
And He who jumped without a chute and was handed one by a diving
Buddy.”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
