“And where the offence is, let the great axe fall.”
William Shakespeare
“Last of all Hurin stood alone. Then he cast aside his shield, and wielded an axe two-handed; and it is sung that the axe smoked in the black blood of the troll-guard of Gothmog until it withered, and each time that he slew Hurin cried 'Aure entuluva!”
J.R.R. Tolkien
“And many strokes though with a little axe hew down and fell the hardest-timbered oak.”
“Bread that must be sliced with an axe is bread that is too nourishing”
Fran Lebowitz
“I don't lecture and I don't grind any axes. I just want to entertain.”
Gregory Peck
“Don't use an axe to embroider”
Malaysian Proverb
“I wouldn't refuse stardom, recognition, acclaim. I had no axe to grind either way... I wasn't wishing I was somewhere else, somebody else, richer or more famous. I was happy and secure with who I was, what I was and where I was. I didn't have to have what they all had.”
Dirk Benedict
