Famous quotes containing the words slip and/or joint:

    One has to secrete a jelly in which to slip quotations down people’s throats—and one always secretes too much jelly.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    I conjure thee, and all the oaths which I
    And thou have sworn to seal joint constancy,
    Here I unswear, and overswear them thus,
    Thou shalt not love by ways so dangerous.
    Temper, O fair Love, love’s impetuous rage,
    Be my true Mistress still, not my feign’d Page;
    I’ll go, and, by thy kind leave, leave behind
    Thee, only worthy to nurse in my mind
    Thirst to come back;
    John Donne (1572–1631)
