Spirits

Famous quotes containing the word spirits:

    I have heard, but not believed, the spirits o’the dead
    May walk again.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Towards him they bend
    With awful reverence prone; and as a God
    Extoll him equal to the highest in Heav’n:
    Nor fail’d they to express how much they prais’d,
    That for the general safety he despis’d
    His own: for neither do the Spirits damn’d
    Loose all thir vertue; lest bad men should boast
    Thir specious deeds on earth, which glory excites,
    Or close ambition varnisht o’er with zeal.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Glendower. I can call spirits from the vasty deep.
    Hotspur. Why, so can I, or so can any man.
    But will they come when you do call for them?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
