Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or fox:

    Our thoughts are always elsewhere; we are stayed and supported by the hope for a better life, or by the hope that our children will turn out well, or that our name will be famous in the future, or that we shall escape the evils of this life, or that vengeance threatens those who are the cause of our death.

    How much the greatest event it is that ever happened in the world! and how much the best!
    —Charles James Fox (1749–1806)
