Swells

Famous quotes containing the word swells:

    “My grief lies all within,
    And these external manners of laments
    Are merely shadows to the unseen grief
    That swells with silence in the tortured soul.
    There lies the substance.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Like an unseasonable stormy day,
    Which makes the silver rivers drown their shores,
    As if the world were all dissolved to tears,
    So high above his limits swells the rage
    Of Bolingbroke.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “the pomp
    Of pain swells like the Indies, or a plum”
