Fastened

Famous quotes containing the word fastened:

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“A man’s love, till it has been chastened and fastened by the feeling of duty which marriage brings with it, is instigated mainly by the difficulty of pursuit.”

“Anything we saw
And thus fastened on
With an epithet,
We would see to yet
We would want to touch,
Not to mention clutch.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
