Lightning Strike

Famous quotes containing the words lightning and/or strike:

“‘Tis said of love that it sometimes goes, sometimes flies; runs with one, walks gravely with another; turns a third into ice, and sets a fourth in a flame: it wounds one, another it kills: like lightning it begins and ends in the same moment: it makes that fort yield at night which it besieged but in the morning; for there is no force able to resist it.”
—Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)

“Submission is the only good;
Let me become an instrument sharply stringed
For all things to strike music as they please.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
