touch'd QUOTES

1 " There is in souls a sympathy with sounds:
And as the mind is pitch'd the ear is pleased
With melting airs, or martial, brisk or grave;
Some chord in unison with what we hear
Is touch'd within us, and the heart replies. "

― William Cowper

2 " Never so sure our rapture to create
As when it touch'd the brink of all we hate. "

― William Hazlitt

3 " I have touch'd the highest point of all my greatness And from that full meridian of my glory I haste now to my setting. "

4 " And the heart that is soonest awake to the flowers is always the first to be touch'd by the thorns. "
