Famous quotes containing the words bent and/or trumpet:
“As in a theatre the eyes of men,
After a well-graced actor leaves the stage,
Are idly bent on him that enters next,
Thinking his prattle to be tedious,
Even so, or with much more contempt, men’s eyes
Did scowl on gentle Richard.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?”
—Bible: New Testament 1 Corinthians 14:8.
