Gross Thrust

Famous quotes containing the words gross and/or thrust:

    In the gross and scope of mine opinion,
    This bodes some strange eruption to our state.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Here, my dear Lucy, hide these books. Quick, quick! Fling “Peregrine Pickle” under the toilette—throw “Roderick Random” into the closet—put “The Innocent Adultery” into “The Whole Duty of Man”; thrust “Lord Aimworth” under the sofa! cram “Ovid” behind the bolster; there—put “The Man of Feeling” into your pocket. Now for them.
    Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
