Famous quotes containing the words air, force and/or combat:
“To be worst,
The lowest and most dejected thing of fortune,
Stands still in esperance, lives not in fear.

The worst returns to laughter. Welcome, then,
Thou unsubstantial air that I embrace!
The wretch that thou hast blown unto the worst
Owes nothing to thy blasts.”

Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees
Is my destroyer.”
