Veil Falls

Famous quotes containing the words veil and/or falls:

“For even within his tent she accomplished his derision;
She loosed one veil and another, standing unafraid;
And he perished.”

“O how wretched
Is that poor man that hangs on princes’ favours!
There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,
That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,
More pangs and fears than wars or women have,
And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
Never to hope again.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
