Famous quotes containing the words dungeon and/or history:

    An exile, saddest of all prisoners,
    Who has the whole world for a dungeon strong,
    Seas, mountains, and the horizon’s verge for bars.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    I believe my ardour for invention springs from his loins. I can’t say that the brassiere will ever take as great a place in history as the steamboat, but I did invent it.
    Caresse Crosby (1892–1970)
