Deadly Passage

Famous quotes containing the words deadly and/or passage:

    Lord, crack their teeth! Lord, crush these lions’ jaws!
    So let them sink as water in the sand;
    When deadly bow their aiming fury draws,
    Shiver the shaft ere past the shooter’s hand.
    So make them melt as the dishoused snail
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm LVIII (Paraphrased by the Countess of Pembroke)

    Man is the shuttle, to whose winding quest
    And passage through these looms
    God ordered motion, but ordained no rest.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
