Famous quotes containing the word mouth:

    I know the compassion of others is a relief at first. I don’t despise it. But it can’t quench pain, it slips through your soul as through a sieve. And when our suffering has been dragged from one pity to another, as from one mouth to another, we can no longer respect or love it.
    Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)

    The mouth may lie, alright, but the face it makes nonetheless tells the truth.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Another hand thy sword shall wield,
    Another hand the standard wave,
    Till from the trumpet’s mouth is pealed
    The blast of triumph o’er thy grave.
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
