Put Off

Famous quotes containing the word put:

    “Then we shall rust in shade, or shine in strife,
    And fluctuate ‘twixt blind hopes and blind despairs,
    And fancy that we put forth all our life,
    And never know how with the soul it fares.”
    —Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    “Averageness is a quality we must put up with. Men march toward civilization in column formation, and by the time the van has learned to admire the masters the rear is drawing reluctantly away from the totem pole.”
    —Frank Moore Colby (1865–1925)
