Shedding Blade

Famous quotes containing the words shedding and/or blade:

    “Thus Winter falls,
    A heavy gloom oppressive o’er the world
    Through Nature shedding influence malign,

    The soul of man dies in him, loathing life,
    And black with more than melancholy views.”
    —James Thomson (1700–1748)
