Fast Escape

Famous quotes containing the words fast and/or escape:

    And here the precious dust is layd;
    Whose purely temper’d Clay was made
    So fine, that it the guest betray’d.

    Else the soule grew so fast within,
    It broke the outward shell of sinne,
    And so was hatch’d a Cherubin.
    Thomas Carew (1589–1639)

    I think middle-age is the best time, if we can escape the fatty degeneration of the conscience which often sets in at about fifty.
    —W.R. (William Ralph)
