Famous quotes containing the word fate:
“I’d like to get away from earth awhile
And then come back to it and begin over.
May no fate willfully misunderstand me
And half grant what I wish and snatch me away
Not to return. Earth’s the right place for love:
I don’t know where it’s likely to go better.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Such is the fate of simple Bard,
On life’s rough ocean luckless starr’d:”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
“... it is not only our fate but our business to lose innocence, and once we have lost that it is futile to attempt a picnic in Eden.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
