Famous quotes containing the words perilous and/or skies:
“Macbeth. Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased,
Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow,
Raze out the written troubles of the brain,
And with some sweet oblivious antidote
Cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous stuff
Which weighs upon the heart?
Doctor. Therein the patient
Must minister to himself.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“O make harmonious mix of voice and string
To him by whom the skies with clouds are lind;
By whom the rain, from clouds to drop assignd,
Supples the clods of summer-scorched fields,”
—Bible: Hebrew Psalm CXLVII (Paraphrased by The Countess of Pembroke)
