Grace

Famous quotes containing the word grace:

“It’s nothing to be born ugly. Sensibly, the ugly woman comes to terms with her ugliness and exploits it as a grace of nature. To become ugly means the beginning of a calamity, self-willed most of the time.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

“The maelstrom of fatherhood is a chance to show grace under real pressure, to be cool despite the chaos of your son’s room. That’s something that’s worth a fellow’s time.”
—Hugh O’Neill (20th century)

“No April can revive thy withered flowers,
Whose blooming grace adorns thy glory now;
Swift speeding Time, feathered with flying hours,
Dissolves the beauty of the fairest brow.
Oh let not then such riches waste in vain,
But love whilst that thou mayst be loved again.”
—Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
