Famous quotes containing the word fate:
“Such is the fate of simple Bard,
On lifes rough ocean luckless starrd:”
—Robert Burns (17591796)
“For when we must resign our vital breath,
Our Loves by Fate benighted,
We by this friendship shall survive in death,
Even in divorce united.
Weak Love through fortune or distrust
In time forgets to burn,
But this pursues us to the Urn,
And marries eithers Dust.”
—Thomas Stanley (16251678)
“Id like to get away from earth awhile
And then come back to it and begin over.
May no fate willfully misunderstand me
And half grant what I wish and snatch me away
Not to return. Earths the right place for love:
I dont know where its likely to go better.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
