Famous quotes containing the words power and/or shaft:
“The interest in life does not lie in what people do, nor even in their relations to each other, but largely in the power to communicate with a third party, antagonistic, enigmatic, yet perhaps persuadable, which one may call life in general.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
“Its hard to tell you how I managed it.
When I saw the shaft had me by the coat,
I didnt try too long to pull away,
Or fumble for my knife to cut away,
I just embraced the shaft and rode it out....”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
