Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or north:

    “Let the famous not denounce fame. Far from being empty and meaningless, it fills those it touches with divine power.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “The North is full of tangled things and texts and aching eyes
    And dead is all the innocence of anger and surprise,
    And Christian killeth Christian in a narrow dusty room,
    And Christian dreadeth Christ that hath a newer face of doom,
    And Christian hateth Mary that God kissed in Galilee,”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
