Famous quotes containing the word graces:

    As for the graces of expression, a great thought is never found in a mean dress; but ... the nine Muses and the three Graces will have conspired to clothe it in fit phrase. Its education has always been liberal, and its implied wit can endow a college.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Before the time I did Lysander see,
    Seemed Athens as a paradise to me.
    O then, what graces in my love do dwell,
    That he hath turned a heaven unto a hell?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Although my royal rank causes me to doubt whether my kingdom is not more sought after than myself, yet I understand that you have found other graces in me.
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
