Famous quotes containing the words mighty and/or fate:
“Society is now one polished horde,
Formed of two mighty tribes, the Bores and Bored.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“It is not menstrual blood per se which disturbs the imagination—unstanchable as that red flood may be—but rather the albumen in the blood, the uterine shreds, placental jellyfish of the female sea. This is the chthonian matrix from which we rose. We have an evolutionary revulsion from slime, our site of biologic origins. Every month, it is woman’s fate to face the abyss of time and being, the abyss which is herself.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
