Highly Auspicious Signs

Famous quotes containing the words highly, auspicious and/or signs:

    I find my zenith doth depend upon
    A most auspicious star, whose influence
    If now I court not, but omit, my fortunes
    Will ever after droop.

    Mister death who signs papers
    then eats
    telegraphs simply: Shoot them
    then eats
