Famous quotes containing the words softer and/or world:

    Fair are these petals
    broken by your feet;

    tread softer than a deer’s.

    Whoever can discern truth has received his commission from a higher source than the chiefest justice in the world who can discern only law. He finds himself constituted judge of the judge. Strange that it should be necessary to state such simple truths!
