“A good heavy book holds you down. It's an anchor that keeps you from getting up and having another gin and tonic.”
Roy Blount Jr.
“If a piece of furniture is top-heavy or unstable, fasten it to a wall using angle braces or anchors. Keep heavier items on lower shelves or in lower drawers.”
Anne Franchak
“Every ship has an anchor to hold it in place, and Casey is the anchor of our defensive line. Everything comes from him, he is the center of everything. If he gets beat, everything seems to slip around him. We all thought he got snubbed when he was named an alternate because we felt he should have been there, so this is a great thing for him.”
Brett Keisel
“It is a little wet from falling in but these are my anchor flies, my heavy weighted flies. It is a little bit of a mess these are the really heavy ones over two grams. These are about a gram and it is starting to get lighter.”
Brian Capsay
“Nobody talked about women as successors [to male anchors] for ages. To have a solo female anchor of the evening news is a milestone, there's no question about it. ... It's crazy at this time in our history, but there it is.”
Cokie Roberts
“Plastic keychain anchors like these can break too easily. It's better to use either heavy straps or metal L brackets.”
Don Mays
“If we are always arriving and departing, it is also true that we are eternally anchored. One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.”
Henry Miller
