Famous quotes containing the words close and/or combat:

    “I now thinke, Love is rather deafe, than blind,
    For else it could not be,
    That she,
    Whom I adore so much, should so slight me,
    And cast my love behind:
    I’m sure my language to her, was as sweet,
    And every close did meet
    In sentence, of as subtile feet,
    As hath the youngest Hee,”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    “The combat ended for want of combatants.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
