Seventh Earl

Famous quotes containing the words seventh and/or earl:

“With its frame of shaking curls all in disarray,
earrings swinging,
make-up smudged by beads of sweat,
eyes languid at the end of lovemaking,
may the face of the slim girl
who’s riding on top of you
protect you long.
What’s the use
of Vi.s».n»u, iva, Skanda,
and all those other gods?”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

“The best way to compel weak-minded people to adopt our opinion, is to frighten them from all others, by magnifying their danger.”
