Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    “Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him.”
    —Bible: Hebrew (KJ)

    “When such as I cast out remorse
    So great a sweetness flows into the breast
    We must laugh and we must sing,
    We are blest by everything,
    Everything we look upon is blest.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “It was always the work that was the gyroscope in my life. I don’t know who could have lived with me. As an architect you’re absolutely devoured. A woman’s cast in a lot of roles and a man isn’t. I couldn’t be an architect and be a wife and mother.”
    —Eleanore Kendall Pettersen (b. 1916)
