Malory Nest

Famous quotes containing the words malory and/or nest:

    Nowadays men cannot love seven night but they must have all their desires: that love may not endure by reason; for where they be soon accorded and hasty, heat soon it cooleth. Right so fareth love nowadays, soon hot soon cold: this is no stability. But the old love was not so.
    —Thomas Malory (c. 1430–1471)

    He builds a big town with his mouth, but not even a fly’s nest with his hands.
    —Estonian. Trans. by Ilse Lehiste (1993)
