Falls Match

Famous quotes containing the words falls and/or match:

“Fate forces its way to the powerful and violent. With subservient obedience it will assume for years dependency on one individual: Caesar, Alexander, Napoleon, because it loves the elemental human being who grows to resemble it, the intangible element. Sometimes, and these are the most astonishing moments in world history, the thread of fate falls into the hands of a complete nobody but only for a twitching minute.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)

“One fairer than my love! The all-seeing sun
Ne’er saw her match since first the world begun.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
