Famous quotes containing the words black and/or magic:
“All my fond love thus do I blow to heaven
‘Tis gone.
Arise, black vengeance, from the hollow hell!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A full bosom is actually a millstone around a woman’s neck: it endears her to the men who want to make their mammet of her, but she is never allowed to think that their popping eyes actually see her. Her breasts ... are not parts of a person but lures slung around her neck, to be kneaded and twisted like magic putty, or mumbled and mouthed like lolly ices.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
