Famous quotes containing the words fallen and/or officers:
“It was at that moment, just after Krug had fallen through the bottom of a confused dream and sat up on the straw with a gaspand just before his reality, his remembered hideous misfortune could pounce upon himit was then that I felt a pang of pity for Adam and slid towards him along an inclined beam of pale lightcausing instantaneous madness, but at least saving him from the senseless agony of his logical fate.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (18991977)
“You know, what I very well know, that I bought you. And I know, what perhaps you think I dont know, you are now selling yourselves to somebody else; and I know, what you do not know, that I am buying another borough. May Gods curse light upon you all: may your houses be as open and common to all Excise Officers as your wifes and daughters were to me, when I stood for your scoundrel corporation.”
—Anthony Henley (d. 1745)
