Famous quotes containing the words luck and/or woman:
“In luck or out the toil has left its mark:
That old perplexity an empty purse,
Or the days vanity, the nights remorse.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Ah! how much a mother learns from her child! The constant protection of a helpless being forces us to so strict an alliance with virtue, that a woman never shows to full advantage except as a mother. Then alone can her character expand in the fulfillment of all lifes duties and the enjoyment of all its pleasures.”
—HonorĂ© De Balzac (17991850)
