He was very quiet. ordsprog

He was very quiet. The other thing was that he had a shell about him, and you couldn't get to know him. He seemed likeable enough, but you couldn't get inside the shell.

Perhaps middle-age is, or should be, a period of shedding shells; the shell of ambition, the shell of material accumulations and possessions, the shell of the ego

Anne Morrow Lindbergh (1906-2001)

The mind must become the servant of the intellect, not the slave of the senses. It must discriminate and detach itself from the body. Like the ripe tamarind fruit, which, becomes loose inside the shell, it must be unattached to this shell, this casement called body.

Teresa Pelletier

It was an elderly couple, in their 90s, who were so shell-shocked they didn't want to come out or let anyone in. They were even trying to quiet their own little dog.

Five years ago, you couldn't pay people to live downtown. Capital was fleeing. All the development was up north. Downtown was running risk of becoming a shell of its former self.

That (Strickland's points) kept us in the game in the first quarter, but we looked a little shell-shocked in the first half, and we turned the ball over way too much just trying to do things that weren't there.

It's a shell game and it's the kind of shell game that I think taxpayers have been skeptical about. It's a shame when we play into it.

Beauty of form affects the mind, but then it must be understood that it is not the mere shell that we admire; we are attracted by the idea that this shell is only a beautiful case adjusted to the shape and value of a still more beautiful pearl within.
