Grace

Famous quotes containing the word grace:

“No convention gets to be a convention at all except by grace of a lot of clever and powerful people first inventing it, and then imposing it on others. You can be pretty sure, if you are strictly conventional, that you are following genius—a long way off. And unless you are a genius yourself, that is a good thing to do.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

“Love not me for comely grace,
For my pleasing eye or face,
Nor for any outward part:
No, nor for a constant heart!”
—Unknown. Love Not Me for Comely Grace (l. 1–4)

“See what a grace was seated on this brow:
Hyperion’s curls, the front of Jove himself,
An eye like Mars, to threaten and command.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
