Famous quotes containing the words mighty and/or fate:

leaves hungry spirits satisfied,
the rich seem suddenly poor.”

“Ev’n thou who mourn’st the Daisy’s fate,
That fate is thine—no distant date;
Stern Ruin’s ploughshare drives , elate,
Full on thy bloom,
Till crush’d beneath the furrow’s weight,
Shall be thy doom.”
