Famous quotes containing the word fate:
“...I feel anxious for the fate of our monarchy, or democracy, or whatever is to take place.

Great difficulties may be surmounted by patience and perseverance.”
—Abigail Adams (1744–1818)
“Heaven forbids that man should know
What change tomorrow’s fate may bring.”
—Publius Papinius Statius (c. 40–96)

—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
