Famous quotes containing the words edict and/or issued:
“If then true lovers have ever been crossed
It stands as an edict in destiny.
Then let us teach our trial patience,
Because it is a customary cross,
As due to love and thoughts, and dreams, and sighs,
Wishes, and tears—poor fancy’s followers.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We don’t invent our natures. They’re issued to us along with our lungs, our pancreas and everything else.”
