Showed Frank

Famous quotes containing the words showed and/or frank:

    He took him down below a cramping rafter,
    And showed him, through a manhole in the floor,
    The water in desperate straits like frantic fish,
    Salmon and sturgeon, lashing with their tails.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The reputation of a man is like his shadow; it sometimes follows and sometimes precedes him, sometimes longer and sometimes shorter than his natural size.
    —French Proverb. Quoted in Dictionary of Similes, ed. Frank J. Wilstach (1916)
