Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    “In the small circle of pain within the skull
    You still shall tramp and tread one endless round
    Of thought, to justify your action to yourselves,
    Weaving a fiction which unravels as you weave,
    Pacing forever in the hell of make-believe
    Which never is belief: this is your fate on earth
    And we must think no further of you.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “We must all die. There’s nothing terrible about death. But to live on after death, a soul, earthbound, a vampire—you don’t wish any such fate for your beloved.”
    —Guy Endore, and Tod Browning. Prof. Zelenn (Lionel Barrymore)

    “The fate of love is that it always seems too little or too much.”
    —Amelia E. Barr (1831–1919)
