Famous quotes containing the words small, cell and/or lung:

    “When I think of this life I have led; the desolation of solitude it has been; the masoned, walled-town of a Captain’s exclusiveness, which admits but small entrance to any sympathy from the green country without—oh, weariness! heaviness! Guinea-coast slavery of solitary command!”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “She that but little patience knew,
    From childhood on, had now so much
    A grey gull lost its fear and flew
    Down to her cell and there alit,
    And there endured her fingers’ touch
    And from her fingers ate its bit.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Lord, confound this surly sister,
    Blight her brow with blotch and blister,
    Cramp her larynx, lung and liver,
    In her guts a galling give her.”
    —J.M. (John Millington)
