Famous quotes containing the word shook:
“I shook off the sweat and the sun. I understood that I had destroyed the balance of the day, the exceptional silence of a beach where I had been happy. Then I shot four more times at an inert body which the bullets penetrated without appearing so. And it was like four brief knocks that I struck on the door of misfortune.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“That Time can never mar a lover’s vows
Under that woven changeless roof of boughs:
The singing shook him out of his new ease.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“The world is charged with the grandeur of God.
It will flame out, like shining from shook foil.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
