Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or turned:
“High on a throne of his own labors reared.
At his right hand our young Ascanius sate,
Romes other hope and pillar of the state.
His brows thick fogs, instead of glories, grace,
And lambent dullness played around his face.”
—John Dryden (16311700)
“I was amongst the virtues like the great Turk in his seraglio of women, and I chose to dwell with that virtue which looked the fairest in my eyes and gave me at that season most pleasure. In short, I made wives of them: I first admired them, then made them my own property, and if they would not submit to my will, I again turned them off and divorced them.”
—Sarah Fielding (17101768)
