Permanent Peace

Famous quotes containing the words permanent and/or peace:

    The generations of men run on in the tide of time,
    But leave their destined lineaments permanent for ever & ever.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    I sometimes wonder whether, in the still, sleepless hours of the night, the consciences of ... professional gossips do not stalk them. I myself believe in a final reckoning, when we shall be held accountable for our misdeeds. Do they? If so, they have cause to worry over many scoops that brought them a day’s dubious laurels and perhaps destroyed someone’s peace forever.
    Mary Pickford (1893–1979)
