Lightning Strike

Famous quotes containing the words lightning and/or strike:

“When the cross blue lightning seemed to open
The breast of heaven, I did present myself
Even in the aim and very flash of it.”

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.”
