Famous quotes containing the words shake and/or hands:
“Mind not the old man beseeching the young man;
Let not the childs voice be heard, nor the mothers entreaties;
Make even the trestles to shake the dead, where they lie awaiting
the hearses,
So strong you thump, O terrible drumsso loud you bugles blow.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“Many famous feet have trod
Sublunary paths, and famous hands have weighed
The strength they have against the strength they need;
And famous lips interrogated God
Concerning franchise in eternity....”
