Potent

Famous quotes containing the word potent:

    What potent blood hath modest May;
    What fiery force the earth renews,

    Flows from the heart of Love, the Lord.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    By my so potent art. But this rough magic
    I here abjure.

    And I don’t feel so well myself.
