Souls

Famous quotes containing the word souls:

    Why, all the souls that were were forfeit once,
    And He that might the vantage best have took
    Found out the remedy. How would you be
    If He which is the top of judgment should
    But judge you as you are? O, think on that,
    And mercy then will breathe within your lips,
    Like man new made.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    There are hermit souls that live withdrawn
    In the place of their self-content;
    There are souls like stars, that dwell apart,
    In a fellowless firmament;
    There are pioneer souls that blaze their paths
    Where highways never ran—
    Sam Walter Foss (1858–1911)

    And whilst our souls negotiate there,
    We like sepulchral statues lay;
    All day, the same our postures were,
    And we said nothing, all the day.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
