Famous quotes containing the words master and/or sword:
“Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice,
You can endure the livery of a nun,
For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
To live a barren sister all your life,
Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“...and every sword was against the other, so that there was very great confusion.”
—Bible: Hebrew, 1 Samuel 14:20.
