Lawful Oath

Famous quotes containing the words lawful and/or oath:

    Me of my lawful pleasure she restrained,
    And prayed me oft forbearance; did it with
    A pudency so rosy the sweet view on’t
    Might well have warmed old Saturn; that I thought her
    As chaste as unsunned snow.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Figure a man’s only good for one oath at a time. I took mine to the Confederate States of America.
    Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)
