Famous quotes containing the words strange, adventure and/or magazine:
“Diseased nature oftentimes breaks forth
In strange eruptions; oft the teeming earth
Is with a kind of colic pinched and vexed
By the imprisoning of unruly wind
Within her womb, which, for enlargement striving,
Shakes the old beldame earth, and topples down
Steeples and moss-grown towers.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won’t.”
—William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)
“The Husband of To-Day ever considers his wife but as a portion of his my-ship.
Nominative I.
Possessive My, or Mine.
Objective Me.
This is the grammar known to the Husband of To-Day.”
—Anonymous, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Revolution (June 24, 1869)
