Wooden Shaft

Famous quotes containing the words wooden and/or shaft:

“Totem poles and wooden masks no longer suggest tribal villages but fashionable drawing rooms in New York and Paris.”

“Lord, crack their teeth! Lord, crush these lions’ jaws!
So let them sink as water in the sand;
When deadly bow their aiming fury draws,
Shiver the shaft ere past the shooter’s hand.
So make them melt as the dishoused snail”
—Bible: Hebrew Psalm LVIII (Paraphrased by the Countess of Pembroke)
