Tells

Famous quotes containing the word tells:

    Governments can err, Presidents do make mistakes, but the immortal Dante tells us that divine justice weighs the sins of the cold-blooded and the sins of the warm-hearted in different scales. Better the occasional faults of a Government that lives in a spirit of charity than the constant omission of a Government frozen in the ice of its own indifference.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    O, what damned minutes tells he o’er
    Who dotes, yet doubts; suspects, yet strongly loves!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    When after talk with other men
    A man comes back to a woman again
    He tells her as much of blood and dirt
    As he thinks will do her not too much hurt.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
