Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    To die for one’s country is such a worthy fate that all compete for so beautiful a death.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    ‘Tis weak and vicious people who cast the blame on Fate. The right use of Fate is to bring up our conduct to the loftiness of nature.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    And last of all, high over thought, in the world of morals, Fate appears as vindicator, levelling the high, lifting the low, requiring justice in man, and always striking soon or late when justice is not done. What is useful will last, what is hurtful will sink.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
