Measure Jump

Famous quotes containing the words measure and/or jump:

“I love the pride whose measure is its own eminence and not the insignificance of someone else.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“If it were done when ‘tis done, then ‘twere well
It were done quickly. If th’ assassination
Could trammel up the consequence, and catch
With his surcease success—that but this blow
Might be the be-all and the end-all!—here,
But here, upon this bank and shoal of time,
We’d jump the life to come.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
