Famous quotes containing the words pagan and/or wives:
“The great pagan world of which Egypt and Greece were the last living terms ... once had a vast and perhaps perfect science of its own, a science in terms of life. In our era this science crumbled into magic and charlatanry. But even wisdom crumbles.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“It is as acceptable now to love the wives of others as it is to smoke their cigars and read their books.”
