That which hits the fan tends to get flung in all directions.
Larry Wall
God of our fathers, known of old,
Lord of our far-flung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!Rudyard Kipling
Agesilaus was very fond of his children; and it is reported that once toying with them he got astride upon a reed as upon a horse, and rode about the room; and being seen by one of his friends, he desired him not to speak of it till he had children of his own.
Plutarch
Over my head his arm he flung
Against the world.Robert Browning
Wise words are like arrows flung at your forehead. What do you do? Why, you duck of course.
