Strong Syllable

Famous quotes containing the words strong and/or syllable:

    Through tattered clothes great vices do appear;
    Robes and furred gowns hide all. Place sin with gold,
    And the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks:
    Arm it in rags, a pigmy’s straw does pierce it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Seyton. The Queen, my lord, is dead.
    Macbeth. She should have died hereafter;
    There would have been a time for such a word.—
    Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
    Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
    To the last syllable of recorded time;
    And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
    The way to dusty death.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
