Unknown. The Seven Virgins

Famous quotes containing the words unknown and/or virgins:

    All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    The great majority of people in England and America are modest, decent and pure-minded and the amount of virgins in the world today is stupendous.
    Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)
