Quotations for threat

Another life, if it were not better than this, would be less a promise than a threat. [ J. Petit-Senn ]

The effects of opposition are wonderful. There are men who rise refreshed on hearing of a threat; men to whom a crisis which intimidates and paralyzes the majority - demanding, not the faculties of prudence and thrift, but comprehension, immovableness, the readiness of sacrifice - comes graceful and beloved as a bride. [ Emerson ]
