Famous quotes containing the words part and/or passion:
“Our frigate takes fire,
The other asks if we demand quarter?
If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“The constancy of the wise is nothing else but the knack of concealing their passion and trouble.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
