Famous quotes containing the words curse and/or lost:

    O curse of marriage,
    That we can call these delicate creatures ours
    And not their appetites!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    All you people don’t know about lost causes. Mr. Paine does. He said once they were the only causes worth fighting for, and he fought for them once, for the only reason that any man ever fights for them. Because of just one plain, simple rule—Love Thy Neighbor. And in this world today, full of hatred, a man who knows that one rule has a great trust.
    Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
