Famous quotes containing the words william and/or greer:

    What is the student but a lover courting a fickle mistress who ever eludes his grasp?
    —Sir William Osler (1849–1919)

    Love, love, love—all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys, blinding and masking the essential personalities in the frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which vivify its barrenness.
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
