Famous quotes containing the words advanced, air and/or striking:
“How oft when men are at the point of death
Have they been merry! which their keepers call
A lightning before death: O, how may I
Call this a lightning? O my love! my wife!
Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath,
Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:
Thou art not conquered; beautys ensign yet
Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,
And deaths pale flag is not advanced there.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“O, when mine eyes did see Olivia first,
Methought she purged the air of pestilence;
That instant was I turned into a hart,
And my desires, like fell and cruel hounds,
Eer since pursue me.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Here we are, were alone in the universe, theres no God, it just seems that it all began by something as simple as sunlight striking on a piece of rock. And here we are. Weve only got ourselves. Somehow, weve just got to make a go of it. Weve only ourselves.”
—John Osborne (b. 1929)
