Precious Paris

Famous quotes containing the words precious and/or paris:

    Children of the same family, the same blood, with the same first associations and habits, have some means of enjoyment in their power, which no subsequent connections can supply; and it must be by a long and unnatural estrangement, by a divorce which no subsequent connection can justify, if such precious remains of the earliest attachments are ever entirely outlived.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    Imagination has seized power.
    [L’imagination prend le pouvoir.]
