Famous quotes containing the words norton, commander and/or inspired:
“Every cloud must have a silver lining.”
—George A. Norton (1880–1923)
“A good old commander and a most kind gentleman.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“At a certain age, we have already been struck by love; it no longer develops alone, according to its own mysteries and fateful laws while our hearts stand by startled and passive. We come to its assistance ... Recognizing one of its symptoms, we recall, we bring back to life the others. Since we possess its song engraved in its totality within us, we do not need for a woman to tell us the beginning—filled with admiration inspired by beauty—to find the continuation.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
