Famous quotes containing the words dye and/or lot:
“It will help me nothing
To plead mine innocence, for that dye is on me
Which makes my whit’st part black.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“What generous beliefs console
The brave whom Fate denies the goal!
If others reach it, is content:
To Heaven’s high will his will is bent.
Firm on his heart relied,
What lot soe’er betide,
Work of his hand
He nor repents nor grieves,
Pleads for itself the fact,
As unrepenting Nature leaves
Her every act.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
