“Have you summoned your wits from woolgathering?”
Thomas Middleton

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
“We applied to summon more witnesses to appear in court and review the evaluation conclusions. So the Beijing No. 2 Intermediate People's Court has decided this case is postponed for one month.”
Mo Shaoping
“So many of our DREAMS at first seem Impossible, then they seem Improbable, and then when we Summon the Will, they soon become Inevitable.”
Christopher Reeve
“Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood.”
William Shakespeare
“A teardrop on earth summons the King of heaven”
Charles R. Swindoll
“When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought, And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste: Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow, For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe, And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight: Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.”
