Put

Famous quotes containing the word put:

“I never saw love as luck, as that gift from the gods which put everything else in place, and allowed you to succeed. No, I saw love as reward. One could find it only after one’s virtue, or one’s courage, or self-sacrifice, or generosity, or loss, has succeeded in stirring the power of creation.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

“And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a perpetual reproach.”

“Don Pedro. You have put him down, lady, you have put him down.
Beatrice. So I would not he should do me, my lord, lest I should prove the mother of fools.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
