Knife Play

Famous quotes containing the words knife and/or play:

    Come, thick night,
    And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,
    That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,
    Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark
    To cry, “Hold, hold!”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    O never give the heart outright,
    For they, for all smooth lips can say,
    Have given their hearts up to the play.
    And who could play it well enough
    If deaf and dumb and blind with love?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
