Famous quotes containing the words arthur, shakespeare and/or lucas:

    Have We not made the earth as a cradle
    and the mountains as pegs?
    And We created you in pairs,
    and We appointed your sleep for a rest;
    and We appointed night for a garment,
    and We appointed day for a livelihood.
    And We have built above you seven strong ones,
    and We appointed a blazing lamp
    and have sent down out of the rain-clouds water cascading
    that We may bring forth thereby grain and plants,
    and gardens luxuriant.
    Qur’an, “The Tiding” 78:6-16, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)

    The jury, passing on the prisoner’s life,
    May have in the sworn twelve a thief or two
    Guiltier than him they try.
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Lucas: You’re the Democratic nominee for Senator.
    John McKay: You make that sound like a death sentence.
    Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter. Lucas (Peter Boyle)
