Masters

Famous quotes containing the word masters:

    Let our hearts, as subtle masters do,
    Stir up their servants to an act of rage
    And after seem to chide ‘em. This shall make
    Our purpose necessary, and not envious;
    Which so appearing to the common eyes,
    We shall be called purgers, not murderers.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Unions in wedlock are perverted by the victory of shameless passion that masters the female among men and beasts.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    The eye-balls were seared with a milky mucus;
    The madness of a dying soul
    Was written on her face—
    But the multitude saw why she wore the bandage.”
    —Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
