Famous quotes containing the word cast:
“... stars that marked
those in whose faces
you had not
looked. ‘They were cast out
as if they were
some animals, some beasts.’”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“You have overcome yourself: but why do you show yourself to me only as the one overcome? I want to see the victor: cast roses into the abyss and say, “Here is my thanks to the monster, because it didn’t know how to swallow me!””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Next, when I cast mine eyes and see
That brave vibration each way free,
O how that glittering taketh me!”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
