Famous quotes containing the words felt and/or recoil:
“A native health and innocence
Within my bones did grow,
And while my God did all his glories show,
I felt a vigour in my sense
That was all spirit: I within did flow
With seas of life like wine;
I nothing in the world did know
But ‘twas divine.”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
“Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
