How to use cauldron in a sentence?

1. William Shakespeare:

   Double, double toil and trouble Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

2. Vanderlei Cordeiro de Lima:

   It was about an hour before it happened, I was already in the stadium, i wasn't expecting it. I know that when they did polls there were a lot of appeals for Vanderlei to light the cauldron. I gave interviews to Brazilian and foreign media, they had raised the idea abroad, but I never thought it was a possibility. I never thought I could be that person.

3. Vice President Biden:

   For a woman to come forward in the glaring lights of focus, nationally, youve got to start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what shes talking about is real, whether or not she forgets facts, whether or not its been made worse or better over time, but nobody fails to understand that this is like jumping into a cauldron.

4. Gustave Flaubert, "Madame Bovary":

   Human speech is a cracked cauldron on which we knock out tunes for dancing bears, when we wish to conjure pity from the stars.

5. Gustave Flaubert, "Madame Bovary", ch. 12:

   ...exaggerated turns of speech conceal mediocre affections: as if the fulness of the soul might not sometimes overflow in the emptiest of metaphors, since no one, ever, can give the exact measurements of his needs, nor of his conceptions, nor of his sufferings, and the human word is like a cracked cauldron upon which we beat out melodies fit for making bears dance when we are trying to move the stars to pity.
