Famous quotes containing the words high and/or thrust:
“Come Sleep! Oh Sleep, the certain knot of peace,
The baiting-place of wit, the balm of woe,
The poor mans wealth, the prisoners release,
Thindifferent judge between the high and low.”

Will seldom scruple to make free
With friendships finest feeling,
Will thrust a dagger at your breast,
And say he wounded you in jest,
By way of balm for healing.”
