Victor Hugo
“A dame that knows the ropes isn't likely to get tied up.”

Thomas Jefferson
“A bird on a tether, no matter how long the rope, can always be pulled back.”
Ronald Reagan
“You cannot put a rope around the neck of an idea; you cannot put an idea up against the barrack-square wall and riddle it with bullets; you cannot confine it in the strongest prison cell your slaves could ever build.”
Sean O'Casey
“He's climbing the rope, and he's gaining.”
The Princess Bride
