Famous quotes containing the word fate:
“And though in tinsel chain and popcorn rope
My tree, a captive in your window bay,
Has lost its footing on my mountain slope
And lost the stars of heaven, may, oh, may
The symbol star it lifts against your ceiling
Help me accept its fate with Christmas feeling.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Thought enables us to see Fate coming.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
