Tremble

Famous quotes containing the word tremble:

    One day beside some flowers near his nose
    He will be thinking, When will I look at it?
    And pain, still in the middle distance, will reply,
    At what? and he will know it’s gone,
    O where! and begin to tremble and cry.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    He who has been impoverished for a long time ... who has long stood before the door of the mighty in darkness and begged for alms, has filled his heart with bitterness so that it resembles a sponge full of gall; he knows about the injustice and folly of all human action and sometimes his lips tremble with rage and a stifled scream.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)
