Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or phrase:
“In most of mankind gratitude is merely a secret hope of further favors.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Those who marry God can become domesticated too—it’s just as hum-drum a marriage as all the others. The word “Love” means a formal touch of the lips as in the ceremony of the Mass, and “Ave Maria” like “dearest” is a phrase to open a letter.”
—Graham Greene (1904–1991)
