Grapple Hook

Famous quotes containing the words grapple and/or hook:

“Religion engaged her feelings in the hard grapple she knew as love.”

“A hook shot kisses the rim and
hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop

and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump

perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
