Famous quotes containing the words masters of, masters and/or evil:

    The masters of the subtle schools
    Are controversial, polymath.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Let our hearts, as subtle masters do,
    Stir up their servants to an act of rage
    And after seem to chide ‘em. This shall make
    Our purpose necessary, and not envious;
    Which so appearing to the common eyes,
    We shall be called purgers, not murderers.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    [The ladies] must be aware that a great evil cannot for a long time, predominate, without, at least, their connivance. Silence is often as effectual an advocate in a cause as eloquence.
