Thou Art Manifest

Famous quotes containing the words thou, art and/or manifest:

“The great King of kings
Hath in the table of his law commanded
That thou shalt do no murder. Will you then
Spurn at his edict, and fulfill a man’s?
Take heed; for he holds vengeance in his hand
To hurl upon their heads that break his law.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

For what thou hast not, still thou striv’st to get,
And what thou hast, forget’st.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
