Famous quotes containing the words deadly and/or skies:
“One of the great triumphs of the nineteenth century was to limit the connotation of the word “immoral” in such a way that, for practical purposes, only those were immoral who drank too much or made too copious love. Those who indulged in any or all of the other deadly sins could look down in righteous indignation on the lascivious and the gluttonous.... In the name of all lechers and boozers I most solemnly protest against the invidious distinction made to our prejudice.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“The sun of a prince’s good graces resembles that in the skies in that it shines most kindly upon the blackest people.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
