Throw

Famous quotes containing the word throw:

“Oh, some as soon would throw it all
As throw a part away.
And some will say all sorts of things,
But some mean what they say.”

“... suffering does not ennoble. It destroys. To resist destruction, self-hatred, or lifelong hopelessness, we have to throw off the conditioning of being despised, the fear of becoming the they that is talked about so dismissively, to refuse lying myths and easy moralities, to see ourselves as human, flawed, and extraordinary. All of us—extraordinary.”
—Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)

“The bard must be with good intent
no more his, but hers;
must throw away his pen and paint,
kneel with worshippers.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
