Lightning Strike

Famous quotes containing the words lightning and/or strike:

“Swift as a shadow, short as any dream,
Brief as the lightning in the collied night,
That in a spleen unfolds both heaven and earth,
And, ere a man hath power to say “Behold!”
The jaws of darkness do devour it up.
So quick bright things come to confusion.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“So, instead of spending my strength quarreling with the hand, I would strike for the heart of that great tyranny.”
—Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)
