Famous quotes containing the words alexander and/or scott:

    I thought when I was a young man that I would conquer the world with truth. I thought I would lead an army greater than Alexander ever dreamed of. Not to conquer nations, but to liberate mankind. With truth. With the golden sound of the Word. But only a few of them heard. Only a few of you understood. The rest of you put on black and sat in chapel.
    Philip Dunne (1908–1992)

    In a real dark night of the soul it is always three o’clock in the morning, day after day.
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
