Famous quotes containing the words sugar and/or island:
“You have witchcraft in your lips, Kate. There is more
eloquence in a sugar touch of them than in the tongues of
the French council.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Your kind doesn’t just kill men. You murder their spirits, you strangle their last breath of hope and freedom, so that you, the chosen few, can rule your slaves in ease and luxury. You’re a sadist just like the others, Heiser, with no resource but violence and no feeling but fear, the kind you’re feeling now. You’re drowning, Heiser, drowning in the ocean of blood around this barren little island you call the New Order.”
—Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)
