Famous quotes containing the words act and/or allowed:
“You can’t take back an act you were able to think.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“I never saw love as luck, as that gift from the gods which put everything else in place, and allowed you to succeed. No, I saw love as reward. One could find it only after one’s virtue, or one’s courage, or self-sacrifice, or generosity, or loss, has succeeded in stirring the power of creation.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
