Lightning Strike

Famous quotes containing the words lightning and/or strike:

“There is a little lightning in his eyes.
Iron at the mouth.
His brows ride neither too far up nor down.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“if thou slip thy troth and do not come at all.
As minutes in the clock do strike so call for death I shall:
To please both thy false heart, and rid myself from woe,
That rather had to die in troth than live forsaken so.”
