Famous quotes containing the words fatal and/or fury:
“Italia! oh Italia! thou who hast
The fatal gift of beauty.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“I never drank of Aganippe well,
Nor ever did in shade of Tempe sit,
And muses scorn with vulgar brains to dwell;
Poor layman I, for sacred rites unfit.
Some do I hear of poets’ fury tell,
But, God wot, wot not what they mean by it;
And this I swear by blackest brook of hell,
I am no pickpurse of another’s wit.”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
