Shaft Graves

Famous quotes containing the words shaft and/or graves:

    “It’s hard to tell you how I managed it.
    When I saw the shaft had me by the coat,
    I didn’t 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 (1874–1963)

    Lovers, the conclusion is
    Doubled sighs and jealousies
    In a single heart that grieves
    For lost honour among thieves.
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)
