Noon August

Famous quotes containing the words noon and/or august:

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    O my dear Candide! You knew Paquette, that pretty attendant of our august baroness; I tasted in her arms the delights of paradise, which produced these torments of hell by which you see me devoured; she was infected and may have died of it.
