Famous quotes containing the word swear:
“That loving wretch that swears
Tis not the bodies marry, but the minds,
Which he in her angelic finds,
Would swear as justly that he hears,
In that days rude hoarse minstrelsy, the spheres.
Hope not for mind in women; at their best
Sweetness and wit, theyre but Mummy, possessed.”
—John Donne (15721631)

I would lay my bones in quick destroying lime”
