Famous quotes containing the word swear:

    “And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.”
    —Bible: New Testament, Matthew 5:36.

    “I never drank of Aganippe well,
    Nor ever did in shade of Tempe sit,
    And muses scorn with vulgar brains to dwell;
    Poor layman I, for sacred rites unfit.
    Some do I hear of poets’ fury tell,
    But, God wot, wot not what they mean by it;
    And this I swear by blackest brook of hell,
    I am no pickpurse of another’s wit.”
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    “Must swear off from swearing. Bad habit.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
