Famous quotes containing the words common and/or rail:

Nothing that common women ponder on
If you are worth my hope! Neither Content

Some ancient famous authors misrepresent,
The Proud Furies each with her torch on high.”

“For this is the mark of a wise and upright man, not to rail against the gods in misfortune.”
