Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    we cast the vessel ashore
    On the Gulliby Isles where the Pooh-pooh smiles,
    And the Rumbletum bunders roar.
    Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    He cast off his friends as a huntsman his pack,
    For he knew when he pleas’d he could whistle them back.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

    For it is with the mysteries of our religion, as with wholesome pills for the sick, which swallowed whole, have the virtue to cure; but chewed, are for the most part cast up again without effect.
