Ground States

Famous quotes containing the words ground and/or states:

    Keep out of Chancery.... It’s being ground to bits in a slow mill; it’s being roasted at a slow fire; it’s being stung to death by single bees; it’s being drowned by drops; it’s going mad by grains.

    How many ages hence
    Shall this our lofty scene be acted over
    In states unborn and accents yet unknown!
