Cries

Famous quotes containing the word cries:

    Far from her nest the lapwing cries away;
    My heart prays for him, though my tongue do curse.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    And you could have a new automobile
    Ping pong set and garage, but the thief
    Stole everything like a miracle.
    In his book there was a picture of treason only
    And in the garden, cries and colors.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    That clemency which the world cries up for such a mighty virtue proceeds sometimes from ostentation, sometimes from laziness and neglect, very often from fear, almost always from a mixture of all these together.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
