Nurse

Famous quotes containing the word nurse:

    Warmest climes but nurse the cruelest fangs: the tiger of Bengal crouches in spiced groves of ceaseless verdure. Skies the most effulgent but basket the deadliest thunders: gorgeous Cuba knows tornadoes that never swept tame northern lands.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    The intellectual damn
    Will nurse your half-hurt. Quickly you are well.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Then England’s ground, farewell. Sweet soil, adieu,
    My mother and my nurse that bears me yet!
    Where e’er I wander, boast of this I can:
    Though banished, yet a true-born Englishman.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
