Patch Quotes

Day after day we looked for rain, and day after day we saw nothing but the sun. Lavender that we had planted in the spring died.

I navigate the world well enough in my own way Picture Quote #1

How to explain to the earth that it was more functional as a vegetable patch than a flower garden, just as factories were more functional than schools and boys were more functional as weapons than as humans Picture Quote #1

How do you caution a fawn about a cigarette a motorist has just flipped from his car window into a patch of yellow grass, or tell a sparrow that winged creatures eventually plummet to earth? Picture Quote #1

Security is always going to be a cat and mouse game because there’ll be people out there that are hunting for the zero day award, you have people that don’t have configuration management, don’t have vulnerability management, don’t have patch management Picture Quote #1

Gather the shards of your courage. Patch together what resolve you can. We'll find this thing - and kill it Picture Quote #1

Who to patch up his fame, or fill his purse, still pilfers wretched plans, and makes them worse; like gypsies, lest the stolen brat be known, defacing first, then claiming for his own Picture Quote #1

Imperious Caesar, dead and turned to clay, might stop a hole to keep the wind away. O, that that Earth which kept the world in awe should patch a wall t' expel the winter's flaw! Picture Quote #1

And he made love to her, offering his body in both tenderness and anger, unsure which was the best way to pass her bits of his soul so that she could patch her own with it Picture Quote #1

A long hallway, hung profusely with dark, water-stained sporting prints, served as a lobby, in which centuries of sacrificed kippers had left the smell of their smoky souls clinging to the wallpaper. Only the patch of sunshine visible through the open front door relieved the gloom Picture Quote #1
