Affects

Famous quotes containing the word affects:

“It is the same for all men. None of us can escape this shadow of the father, even if that shadow fills us with fear, even if it has no name or face.

—Kent Nerburn (20th century)

“There is nothing which at once affects a man so much and so little as his own death.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

“what affects our hearts
Is not the exactness of peculiar parts;
‘Tis not a lip, or eye, we beauty call,
But the joint force and full result of all.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
