Famous quotes containing the word destiny:

    Alienation as our present destiny is achieved only by outrageous violence perpetrated by human beings on human beings.
    —R.D. (Ronald David)

    Death was to be my glory, but destiny has refused it.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    The sacred obligation to the Union soldiers must not—will not be forgotten nor neglected.... But those who fought against the Nation cannot and do not look to it for relief.... Confederate soldiers and their descendants are to share with us and our descendants the destiny of America. Whatever, therefore, we their fellow citizens can do to remove burdens from their shoulders and to brighten their lives is surely in the pathway of humanity and patriotism.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
