Famous quotes containing the words home and/or win:
“Let me obtain forgiveness of thee, Samson,
Afford me place to shew what recompence
Towards thee I intend for what I have misdone,
Misguided; only what remains past cure
Bear not too sensibly, nor still insist
To afflict thy self in vain: though sight be lost,
Life yet hath many solaces, enjoy’d
Where other senses want not their delights
At home in leisure and domestic ease,”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and ... you don’t win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold.”
—Anita Brookner (b. 1938)
