Ring

Famous quotes containing the word ring:

“Good manners have much to do with the emotions. To make them ring true, one must feel them, not merely exhibit them.”

“I like well the ring of your last maxim, “It is only the fear of death makes us reason of impossibilities.” And but for fear, death itself is an impossibility.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Full fathom five thy father lies,
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Ding-dong.
Hark! Now I hear them—ding-dong bell.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
