“Passion is a sort of fever in the mind, which ever leaves us weaker than it found us.”
William Penn
“I see a lilly on thy brow, / With anguish moist and fever dew; / And on thy cheek a fading rose / Fast withereth too. I met a lady in the meads / Full beautiful, a faery's child; / Her hair was long, her foot was light, / And her eyes were wild.”
John Keats
“Feed a cold; starve a fever”
American Proverb
“After life's fitful fever he sleeps well. Treason has done his worst. Nor steel nor poison, malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing can touch him further.”
William Shakespeare
“The great grey-green, greasy Limpopo River, all set about with fever trees.”
Rudyard Kipling
“If envy were a fever, all the world would be ill”
Danish Proverb
