Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    I have, as when the sun doth light a storm,
    Buried this sigh in wrinkle of a smile;
    But sorrow that is couched in seeming gladness
    Is like that mirth fate turns to sudden sadness.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    My fate cries out,
    And makes each petty artery in this body
    As hardy as the Nemean lion’s nerve.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    See him, when starved to death and turned to dust,
    Presented with a monumental bust!
    The poet’s fate is here in emblem shown:
    He asked for bread, and he received a stone.
    Samuel Wesley (1691–1739)
