Famous quotes containing the words employment and/or act:

    We may seem great in an employment below our worth, but we very often look little in one that is too big for us.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    All things are lawful there that may delight
    Nature or unrestrained appetite.

    We only sin when love’s rites are not done.
    Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
