Famous quotes containing the words bellows and/or falls:
“The body is but a pair of pincers set over a bellows and a stewpan and the whole fixed upon stilts.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“O how wretched
Is that poor man that hangs on princes’ favours!
There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,
That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,
More pangs and fears than wars or women have,
And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
Never to hope again.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
