Power Losses

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or losses:

“The memory ... experiencing and re-experiencing, has such power over one’s mere personal life, that one has merely lived.”

“Hold back thy hours, dark Night, till we have done;
The Day will come too soon.
Young maids will curse thee, if thou steal’st away
And leav’st their losses open to the day.
Stay, stay, and hide
The blushes of the bride.”
—Francis Beaumont (1584-1616)
