Famous quotes containing the word struck:

    Though with their high wrongs I am struck to the quick,
    Yet with my nobler reason ‘gainst my fury
    Do I take part. The rarer action is
    In virtue than in vengeance.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I struck the board, and cried, ‘No more,
    I will abroad!
    What? shall I ever sigh and pine?
    My lines and life are free, free as the road,
    Loose as the wind, as large as store.
    Shall I be still in suit?
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    ... the black woman can never forget—however lukewarm the party may to-day appear—that it was a Republican president who struck the manacles from her own wrists and gave the possibilities of manhood to her helpless little ones; and to her mind the Democratic Negro is a traitor and a time-server.
    Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
