Famous quotes containing the word web:
“Thou blind man’s mark, thou fool’s self-chosen snare,
Fond Fancy’s scum and dregs of scattered thought,
Band of all evils, cradle of causeless care,
Thou web of will whose end is never wrought;
Desire! desire, I have too dearly bought
With price of mangled mind thy worthless ware;”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
“These seem like bristles, and the hide is tough.
No claw or web here: each foot ends in hoof.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
