Struck

Famous quotes containing the word struck:

“I am struck by the way people behave on the Tube. They look at each other beadily and inquisitively, and something goes on in their thoughts which must be equivalent to the way dogs and other animals, when they meet, sniff each other’s arses and nuzzle each other’s fur.”
—Graham Swift (b. 1949)

“I was struck by this universal spring upward of the forest evergreens.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“False opinions are like false money, struck first of all by guilty men and thereafter circulated by honest people who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
