“She is trying to keep her troops in line and stay on message, so not to let victory slip out of reach.”
Chris Burns
“How many other slips are there out there? It's not a slip, ... They knew they were there. Somebody knew they were there.”
Colin Powell
“It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? for the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop. Growth is exciting; growth is dynamic and alarming. Growth of the soul, growth of the mind.”
Vita Sackville-West
“Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.”
Bible
“Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.”
“Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.”
“We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out”
Winston Churchill
