Forbidden Months

Famous quotes containing the words forbidden and/or months:

    O wearisome condition of humanity!
    Born under one law, to another bound;
    Vainly begot, and yet forbidden vanity,
    Created sick, commanded to be sound.
    What meaneth nature by these diverse laws?
    Passion and reason self-division cause.
    Fulke Greville (1554–1628)

    I have stopped smoking now and then, for a few months at a time, but it was not on principle, it was only to show off; it was to pulverize those critics who said I was a slave to my habits and couldn’t break my bonds.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
