Jumping Rope

Famous quotes containing the words jumping and/or rope:

    O to break loose, like the chinook
    salmon jumping and falling back,
    nosing up to the impossible
    stone and bone-crushing waterfall—
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    They have gone about the world like wind,
    But little time had they to pray
    For whom the hangman’s rope was spun,
    And what, God help us, could they save?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
