Why not still proceed over the untamed yet obedient element? What can stop the determined heart and resolved will of man? Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
But all this was nothing compared to the face which I regret to say vaguely resembled my own, less the refinement of course, same little abortive moustache, same little ferrety eyes, same paraphimosis of the nose, and a thin red mouth that looked as if it was raw from trying to shit its tongue. Samuel Beckett
William Shakespeare quote: "But, for my own part, it was Greek to me."
