Famous quotes containing the words diving, elbow and/or drop:
“A worm is as good a traveler as a grasshopper or a cricket, and a much wiser settler. With all their activity these do not hop away from drought nor forward to summer. We do not avoid evil by fleeing before it, but by rising above or diving below its plane; as the worm escapes drought and frost by boring a few inches deeper.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Conrade. Here, man, I am at thy elbow.
Borachio. Mass, and my elbow itched; I thought there would a scab follow.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“we drop into the soup
and drown
in the worry festering inside us,
lest our children
go so fast
they go.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
