World Knot

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or knot:

    O, what a world of vile ill-favoured faults,
    Looks handsome in three hundred pounds a year!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A fretful temper will divide
    The closest knot that may be tied,
    By ceaseless sharp corrosion;
    A temper passionate and fierce
    May suddenly your joys disperse
    At one immense explosion.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
