Famous quotes containing the words ladies and/or masters:
“Hear, ye ladies that despise,
What the mighty Love has done;
Fear examples, and be wise:”
—John Fletcher (1579–1625)
“It is only a short step from exaggerating what we can find in the world to exaggerating our power to remake the world. Expecting more novelty than there is, more greatness than there is, and more strangeness than there is, we imagine ourselves masters of a plastic universe. But a world we can shape to our will ... is a shapeless world.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
