Famous quotes containing the words daniel and/or von:

    Fair is my Love, and cruel as she’s fair
    Her brow shades frowns, although her eyes are sunny;
    Her smiles are lightning, though her pride despair;
    And her disdains are gall, her favours honey.
    A modest maid, decked with a blush of honour,
    Whose feet do tread green paths of youth and love,
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    The new vulcanism is really a daring attempt to connect the present, incomprehensible world to a past, unknown one.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
