Famous quotes containing the word louis:

    “Lord, thy most pointed pleasure take
    And stab my spirit broad awake;
    Or, Lord, if too obdurate I,
    Choose thou, before that spirit die,
    A piercing pain, a killing sin,
    And to my dead heart run them in!”
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
