Famous quotes containing the word feeling:

    My heart burnt within me with indignation and grief; we could think of nothing else.... All night long we had only snatches of sleep, waking up perpetually to the sense of a great shock and grief. Every one is feeling the same. I never knew so universal a feeling.
    Elizabeth Gaskell (1810–1865)

    Sarah Ellis (1812–1872)

    O fortunate bride, who never again will become elated after
    childbirth!
    O lucky older wife, who has been cured of feeling unwanted!
