Famous quotes containing the words sealed and/or indictment:
“Our snowstorms as a rule
Arent looked on as man-killers, and although
Id rather be the beast that sleeps the sleep
Under it all, his door sealed up and lost,
Than the man fighting it to keep above it,
Yet think of the small birds at roost and not
In nests....”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“The indictment had never been clearly expressed,
And it seemed that the Snark had begun,
And had spoken three hours, before any one guessed
What the pig was supposed to have done.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
