Quotations for crossed

An oyster may be crossed in love. [ Sheridan ]

Happy that I can
Be crossed and thwarted as a man,
Not left in God's contempt apart,
With ghastly smooth life, dead at heart,
Tame in earth's paddock, as her prize. [ Browning ]

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar. [ Tennyson ]

Over the river they beckon to me,
Loved ones who've crossed to the farther side;
The gleam of their snowy robes I see.
But their voices are drowned in the dashing tide. [ Nancy A. W. Priest ]

He that always makes God's will his, is never crossed. [ Proverb ]

'Twas a hand
White, delicate, dimpled, warm, languid, and bland
The hand of a woman is often, in youth.
Somewhat rough, somewhat red, somewhat graceless, in truth;
Does its beauty refine, as its pulses grow calm,
Or as sorrow has crossed the life line in the palm? [ Lord Lytton ]

They that desire but a few things, can he crossed but in few. [ Proverb ]

Death is a passage: the more rapidly it is crossed, the better.
