Famous quotes containing the words revenge and/or fallen:
“I can’t tell you what art does and how it does it, but I know that often art has judged the judges, pleaded revenge to the innocent and shown to the future what the past suffered, so that it has never been forgotten....

“He is that fallen lance that lies as hurled,

But still lies pointed as it plowed the dust.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
