Famous quotes containing the words fort and/or charlotte:

    ‘Tis said of love that it sometimes goes, sometimes flies; runs with one, walks gravely with another; turns a third into ice, and sets a fourth in a flame: it wounds one, another it kills: like lightning it begins and ends in the same moment: it makes that fort yield at night which it besieged but in the morning; for there is no force able to resist it.
    Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)

    Oh, Jerry, don’t let’s ask for the moon—we have the stars.
    Casey Robinson, screenwriter. Irving Rapper. Charlotte Vale (Bette Davis)
