Dust Shells

Famous quotes containing the words dust and/or shells:

“Sometimes Death, puffing at the doore,
Blows all the dust about the floore:
But while he thinks to spoil the room, he sweeps.
Blest be the Architect, whose art
Could build so strong in a weak heart.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)

“As many as the shells that are on the shore, so many are
the pains of love; the darts that wound are steeped in
much poison.”
