Subject

Famous quotes containing the word subject:

    He has served me too well; by increasing my power he has stolen it away: he is now my subject only so long as he pleases.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    The subject of a good tragedy must not be realistic.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    Hard-hearted girl,
    get rid of these doubts
    based on false rumor.
    It’s not good
    to subject me to sorrow
    because of backbiters’ words,
    or have you decided now,
    silly girl,
    that it’s all true?
    Do to me what you will,
    sweetheart.
    Suit yourself.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
