Breath

Famous quotes containing the word breath:

    Be thou my exaltation
    Or fortitude of mien,
    Lord of the world’s elation,
    Thou breath of things unseen!
    Bliss Carman (1861–1929)

    And for tired eyes every light is too bright, and for tired lips every breath too heavy, and for tired ears every word too much.
    Georg Büchner (1813–1837)

    Not all the water in the rough rude sea
    Can wash the balm off from an anointed king;
    The breath of worldly men cannot depose
    The deputy elected by the Lord.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
