Famous quotes containing the words devil, daniel and/or webster:

    He remained in the grip of a certain devil whom the modern world knows as self-consciousness, and whom the mediaeval, with dimmer vision, worshipped as asceticism.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    If this be love, to clothe me with dark thoughts,
    Haunting untrodden paths to wail apart;
    My pleasures horror, music tragic notes,
    Tears in mine eyes and sorrow at my heart.
    If this be love, to live a living death,
    Then do I love and draw this weary breath.
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    The people’s government, made for the people, made by the people, and answerable to the people.
    —Daniel Webster (1782–1852)
