Famous quotes containing the words reverse and/or wound:

“We came home from the ridotto so late, or rather so early, that it was not possible for me to write. Indeed we did not go ... till past eleven o’clock: but nobody does. A terrible reverse of the order of nature! We sleep with the sun, and wake with the moon.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)

The dullest Tommy hugs that fancy now.
‘Pushing up daisies’ is their creed, you know.”
