Wounds

Famous quotes containing the word wounds:

    It wounds a man less to confess that he has failed in any pursuit through idleness, neglect, the love of pleasure, etc., etc., which are his own faults, than through incapacity and unfitness, which are the faults of his nature.
    William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)

    My talk to thee must be how Benedick
    Is sick in love with Beatrice. Of this matter
    Is little Cupid’s crafty arrow made,
    That only wounds by hearsay.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The lion dying thrusteth forth his paw
    And wounds the earth, if nothing else, with rage
    To be o’erpowered.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
