Famous quotes containing the words mighty and/or fate:
“Behind a veil, unseen yet present, I was the forceful soul that moved this mighty body.”
—Jean Racine (1639–1699)
“Fate forces its way to the powerful and violent. With subservient obedience it will assume for years dependency on one individual: Caesar, Alexander, Napoleon, because it loves the elemental human being who grows to resemble it, the intangible element. Sometimes, and these are the most astonishing moments in world history, the thread of fate falls into the hands of a complete nobody but only for a twitching minute.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
