Forces Act

Famous quotes containing the words forces and/or act:

“Ah! how much a mother learns from her child!

Then alone can her character expand in the fulfillment of all life’s duties and the enjoyment of all its pleasures.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

“Giving words [is] an act of lovers.”
