Famous quotes containing the word august:

    “Antipathy, dissimilarity of views, hate, contempt, can accompany true love.”
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)

    “A man with a so-called character is often a simple piece of mechanism; he has often only one point of view for the extremely complicated relationships of life.”
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)

    “Sorrow has the fortunate peculiarity that it preys upon itself. It dies of starvation. Since it is essentially an interruption of habits, it can be replaced by new habits. Constituting, as it does, a void, it is soon filled up by a real “horror vacui.””
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
