Fate

Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    Sternly, remorselessly, fate guides each of us; only at the beginning, when we’re absorbed in details, in all sorts of nonsense, in ourselves, are we unaware of its harsh hand.

    The fate of the State decides theirs: clauses of treaties determine their affections.

    in union, brimming with nectar.
    What, did fate make my love
    out of both equally?
