Famous quotes containing the word seal:

    Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
    —Bible: Hebrew Song of Solomon, 8:6.

    The denial of our duty to act in this case is a denial of our right to act; and if we have no right to act, then may we well be termed “the white slaves of the North,” for like our brethren in bonds, we must seal our lips in silence and despair.
    Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)

    Shut not so soon; the dull-eyed night
    Has not yet begun
    To make a seizure on the light,
    Or to seal up the sun.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
