Famous quotes containing the words buying and/or power:
“I don’t see the good of a country gentleman. Buying and selling;Mthat’s what the world has to go by.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“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; beauty’s ensign yet
Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,
And death’s pale flag is not advanced there.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
