Famous quotes containing the words unknown and/or sister:
“It is the unknown that excites the ardor of scholars, who, in the known alone, would shrivel up with boredom.”

“Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice,
You can endure the livery of a nun,
For aye to be in shady cloister mewed,
To live a barren sister all your life,
Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
Thrice blessed they that master so their blood
To undergo such maiden pilgrimage.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
